Finally made a decision on a no. 6 (it's the light one).  Here's my stage 3.

Lovely combination - and I really, really love that darker fabric.

 I can't wait to see how these come together.  So many gorgeous fabrics.

My first photo is more accurate re the colours. A creamy palish yellow for fabric 1 and a rich browny no6

Loving your darker brown batik Low and your dark blue leave print Plosh and they are going to make two very different quilts as Plosh is going for a dark background and Low (iirc) a light background!! How exciting!

[Lowena]

If I read correctly
You read correctly
Get that duck out from behind the sofa Ruby

Errrrmmm Girls, I think IIRC means If I Remember Correctly ... at least that's what I was trying to say.

[Sakar]

IIRC? YRC? What are the ducks doing behind the sofa??

Errrrmmm Girls, I think IIRC means If I Remember Correctly ... at least that's what I was trying to say.

I say it in my head as 'If I recall correctly' means the same but a bit smoother on the mental tongue.

It's all the same difference

What are the ducks doing behind the sofa??

Where else would you keep them, Sakar?

Did you miss someone misunderstanding the phrase'ducks behind the sofa'? It is a way of saying 'I'm going to hide down here', often used when watching the scary monster on Doctor Who, or having said something impertinent, to hide from the person you've just upset. But someone thought the ducks were of the feathered variety and did wonder 'What are the ducks doing behind the sofa??' and it's become a 'dark side' joke.

It was me Sakar! I got all confused and muddled about ducks until the penny fell! And in honour of my numptiness I have with great seriousness and aplomb named my bulk roll of batting which lives behind my sofa...."Ducks"! And now every time I wrestle the blooming thing out to use some of it I am reminded of my "moment of glory!"
