I know a couple of people that had woodland themed nurseries that this colour scheme would be perfect for - I have a couple of small scraps I'd love to send you for a scrappy binding or back! One has little brown foxes and I have one with an earthy pinkish brown badgers sett print! They'd be absolutely spot on and I'd love to send them, so let me have your address!!!
