Looks great to me - good contrast - good range of values.

Not sure about the purple , its one of those colors that you like or don't. Maybe try dark blue.. for broader appeal.

Those look great together. Initially I was thinking that the purple wouldn't work, but then I realized that it could just be a perfect "pop" of color.

Personally, I'd not make a St. Pat's themed quilt for a fundraiser, specially after St. Pat's day.

I do like the colors, however.

I believe that SuzzyQ is seeing the two green leaf fabrics not as St. Patrick's fabrics ... but symbolic of 4-H!



SuzzyQ ... Great Plan! I like the purple with it for just that little bit of "pop"!! No matter what it is, anything 4-H'ish should sell well among all those with green in their veins!!! (and I can think of lots of potential buyers who will be there! I'll look forward to seeing it when you get it done ... and perhaps reading all about it, after the auction in the newsletter!

Too much green. Replace one of the greens with another color. That's my opinion only.
