I think you showed us something that did look like it a while back. Love the plate fabric, but possibly not for Sweet 2016. Hugs and thanks for all you do for us. Merry Christmas.

I think that the scale is too large for the amount of background that will show, & that would be a shame.<br /><br />I also lost the cake stands when I first looked at the photo. I had to look again to see them on that background.<br /><br />A smaller scale design would be better for the background so that the cake stands are more visible. There is a lot of work in each design & it would be unfortunate not to be able to see it.Kootenay Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06919619002365325520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113183995005359036.post-55757332530247560652016-12-15T17:29:43.028+11:002016-12-15T17:29:43.028+11:00Hi Esther,

This background detracts from your cakes.

Does that make sense? Makes me think of a 1950's diner setting. Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/07754244941394074550noreply@blogger.com
