Thanks for all your comments yesterday. Quite a few of you agree with me that the dark grey I was using is too strong…..and actually the more I’ve pondered, the more I actually think that maybe the white isn’t right either.<\/p>\n

I’ve been scouring the internet to see what other people have been doing.<\/p>\n

The nicest quilt I’ve seen made from Terrain<\/em> is probably Susan’s, which you can see here<\/a>. She used navy as a contrast – and I think you’ll agree, it’s\u00a0brilliant!<\/p>\n

(Mmmm…..ponder navy…..)<\/p>\n

Hopscotch quilts are a bit few and far between. There’s currently a Flickr group on Swoon<\/em> and Hopscotch<\/em> (both patterns by Camille Roskelley)…..and there is approximately 1 Hopscotch<\/em> to 9999 Swoon<\/em> projects. You can check it out here<\/a>. (I’m going to say this very quietly…but I haven’t seen any projects yet that light my fire!)<\/p>\n

So right now things are rather on hold here. I really, really want to make this project with this fabric….and I’m sure I’m only a hop, skip and a jump away from finding the answer. I’ve been forced (kicking and screaming, as you can imagine!) to order some more fabric. More Terrain<\/em> and also some more Kona Cotton Solids<\/em> and when they arrive I’m going to do some auditions and try to find something to take over from the grey and white…<\/p>\n

Watch this space!<\/p>\n
