With this backing i think kona jade or something along those lines would look great with both sides.<br /><br />Or if you are stuck on a neutral like charcoal, what about a strip of a solid that matches the back underneath it on the front, a la Jaybird Quilts binding with a flange tutorial?Stephanie C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09598087133757902061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5179911210592825352.post-41226105462708709082013-04-17T18:51:08.361-04:002013-04-17T18:51:08.361-04:00I think the charcoal would be perfect for the bind...I think the charcoal would be perfect for the binding.

I love Archie's idea of tossing a bit of yellow/mustard in there, too...a great modern touch!

Joel Dewberry's Aviary 2 Sparrows Cavern Black would be an example. (I happen to be working on something with the same color scheme.)Moira might want to know that the Echo fabric has been reissued - at least, I picked up some with white background and the goldy yellow design a month or so ago - because I always wanted some too!<br /><br />Katy SacramentoKaty McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205124269464918598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5179911210592825352.post-19323210854269614922013-04-17T07:40:24.843-04:002013-04-17T07:40:24.843-04:00I love the quilt and can't wait to read your r...I love the quilt and can't wait to read your review about the Juki! I like the idea of the charcoal binding - how about introducing a little bit of the backing in so that there's a little strip of yellow (mustard? Gold? Hard to tell on my screen!) along an edge or round a corner...<br /><br />P.S.

I like the idea of matching the orange but that may be because I'm not a huge grey fan.
