Default Blue, teal, green, pink and brown....

What quilt pattern would you use for these colors? Usually when I ask what color quilt someone wants I get one or two colors or a color theme like earth tones. This specific combination has me stumped.

Just about anything! How difficult of a pattern are you looking for? The Creme Brulee with the first four colors as the strips and the brown with a cream for the pinwheels would be perfect. Here is one made by another QueBee.

I used these colors in the star struck quilt I did and it is pretty.

any pattern that use that numbr of colors. They don't all have to be used in the block but sashing, borders, binding. Do D9P with three and two borders with binding as one of the colors. It doesn't have to be complicated.

Scroll down and find "Charlotte's Sampler". It has most of those colors, just add the green. It's on the left, about 1/2 way down. http://www.minnkotasale.org/artisan%20auction.htm
