Light Background FabricUse a cream or tan tone-on-tone print fabric.
Basket FabricThe basket base and its logs are made from a tan or brown print fabric. The fabric can contain other colors, but should "read" as (appear to be) tan or brown when viewed from a distance. Make sure there's good contrast between the basket and background fabrics.
Forum DiscussionIt's important to refer to the forum discussion for additional guidelines, such as the maximum number of blocks you can send our hostess and which fabrics can be repeated in your blocks. The discussion is also the best place to ask questions about the block and its construction.
