I think it's because it seems to have a bit more orange in it, which contrasts nicely with the blues.<br /><br />And since you are asking... I'm not a fat on the ikat checkerboard. The change in texture is indeed nice, but it just isn't working for me.Cheryl Arkisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13552721454371060936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-31278308986586640432010-01-21T12:27:41.665-06:002010-01-21T12:27:41.665-06:00I agree on the yellow, and like the lower left and...I agree on the yellow, and like the lower left and upper right fabrics, mostly because they have a hint of green in them and are scaled so no matter how you cut them, the green will still show a bit.Elsie Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13739927333538419518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-18817646233996559102010-01-21T11:49:06.874-06:002010-01-21T11:49:06.874-06:00It's a tough choice...depends on the look you&...It's a tough choice...depends on the look you're going for. I like the Trumpet Flowers or the Hollyhocks the best, but seeing it closeup and in real life it might look different!
