I have ordered the Marcia Derse fabric for the background, but it won't come in until at least late February. I'm thinking of using something different. If you're using a different background fabric, please show me! I need ideas!
GreenQUILTS, it should be easy to see all the backgrounds Quilter's are using by going to all the posts in the post area For Small House 1 and 2. You will need to scroll back thru the pages. There is quite a variety from light to dark. You also get the benefit of seeing how that background looks behind the houses they have built. Also, if you have ordered the fabric and really love that look you, since the background is the last two pieces you could build all of the house except the last 2 pieces. Another idea would be to use two backgrounds. Buy enough fabric (2yards) that complements the Derse fabric. Use it for thr Mariners Compass background and small houses background. That would get you thru March when we do small house 3 and 4. HelenW
