Audition Report

From  comments on yesterday's post, here and on Facebook, #1 was the main choice in every remark,


 'tho #3 was a close second! 

Just something about damask that is pleasing...and I'm going with #1, as it really "spoke" to me at the store!

Many thanks to everyone who "opinionated".
 
Since you're here, have a look at 2 lil bargains I picked up when getting swatches: 
A couple of 50% off of half price remnants (double bargain!)
A sumptuous pink flannel, plus a watercolor cotton, and both are just under a yard!

I also thumbed through studied these books while there:
 
Yes, I was there a long time!
 I
these
books!
So, I went this afternoon to make the big purchase for backing, armed with my coupon for a single cutting...I bought 4 yards, and as there was only 1/2 yard left on the bolt, she offered half price to take it, so I did ;-)

and had a 2nd coupon for this book!
(with thanks to Mr. for going with).

 Just feast your eyes on these beauties!
Drool!

Auditions!

Went back to Joanne's today, and I declare these choices weren't there last time!

I'm so excited to find these 4 options for backing on my Jacob's Ladder quilt ~ and one of these WILL be the winner!  I like them all really.

This one reminds me of the pink ladder fabric...it's a damask:


This one is leafy, and I think would be appropriate:

Also a strong candidate:



My least favorite, but wanted to include it:

And now the line up all together:

Which do you think?
