Default Marbek Nativity

I've finally started the nativity on navy Aida. The fabric is cut and
I am now griding the center panel. I am wondering if I should make
any color changes because I'm using dark fabric? Any advise on this
project would be appreciated.


I haven't completed it but I've done respectable chunks
on black. I haven't felt the need to change any of the colors.
I've seen a couple finished works on black or navy, and I don't
think they changed any colors either (and looked great). So,
while anyone might choose to heed an urge to change colors for
any reason, I don't think it's really necessary in this case.
I'm not aware of an area that falls flat if you change the
background color.

Best wishes,
Ericka
