I just spotted a very clever background idea on Candace Bahouth's new "Avebury" design for Ehrman Tapestry. Click on the "click here to view larger image" link for a good look. It's two colors in stripes of varying widths and irregular edges in two muted colors.

I think this would look fabulous for those pretty florals with the bland, one color backgrounds, sort of like this Point of It All Designs piece.

Many thanks to Candace for her clever design work!
