Color Planning...and re-planning and re-planning, etc.

This is my latest project.  The pattern is by Tonya Benson Robey of Mad Hen Primitives.  I love her patterns and have several of them.  I am really excited about this rug, but the color planning has driven me crazy.  I keep finding different wool and changing my mind.  There are almost too many elements and colors to organize for my small brain! 

I love the background wool (seen around the vines) - it is a lovely plaid that I got from Prim and Proper Stitches.  I also like the two blues I am using on the dress.

This final pic is of Pumpkin playing Queen of the Snow Mound yesterday.  She has a brand new tennis ball in her mouth and refused to reliquish it all morning!
