Thoughts about quilting - fabrics and color, and putting them together; and about the people we do it for.

Planning DSQ10 quilt
I've been stalking my partner on the Internet looking for ideas. She has been very quiet, which makes my job a tad difficult, but I think I'm finally getting a feel for her. (Thank you dear for posting some new pictures and an inspiration mosaic.)
My thought is to create a mini version of this quilt from the recent issue of Quilt magazine. I don't think you can see it in the photo - these drunkard path blocks are raw edge appliqued. The curved edges are frayed and fuzzy. The straight edges are sewn into the seams.
I want to make it using a charm pack - maybe one of the ones on the left - and a solid background - not white. Although, really white might look best with Fresh Flowers if I go that way. Strawberry Fields and Sunkissed might be stunning with aqua or ash grey.
I need to make a decision soon, order the fabric and get sewing. I'd love some input...what do you think?
