Another vote for the darker color. You're in your groove again, Dina!

I think the teal on top corners looks best. It will be beautiful ! I also want to make one.

Hi Dina. SIMPLE ?. The teal !! I do this all the time so the corners are not distracting. I want to see a photo posted when you finish with this one.

I too like the teal, it looks more grounded.

I agree with teal. But, where's the purple?

I'm pressing my fabrics for another Bargello also. Guess I'm in the vast minority Because I think the cream makes more sense. It continues the pattern and "white caps" the teal waves and carries on with the movement your piece has. JMHO, I would paint the frame a teal shade with a cream paint wipe off or vice versa. Or use white oak or pine and do a teal stain wiped off or a dark wood frame. Ok that's way more than my 2 cents so I'll stop now...sorry! Too much HGTV and DIY Network I guess

Dina- I vote for teal, seams to balance better. But then a frame could change all that. Sorry not much help. Oh, store in Phx didn't have the 3 fabrics I needed.

How do you do this so quickly and easily? I seem to take forever just picking colors. Your wall hanging is really pretty.

Yeah, my last few quilts have not been purple. I'll have to fix that.
