    Default Fabric selection for Amazon Star

    Worked on this over the weekend while watching TV. I have the pattern for Amazon Star but want to change the color scheme, not thrilled with the original green as it looks muddy to me. I was pleasantly surprised to see that there were some guidelines for colors like "4 fabrics, all similar color and texture, one of the fabrics could substitute for any of the 4".

    I really like aqua/turquoise/blues and that looks nice with purple so....

    Pam, That is quite the challenging quilt from just fabric selection! I'm sure that it will be beautiful finished. This will take quite a while, I'm sure. Good luck!

    This will be a very beautiful quilt with the colors you chose. I can't wait to see it finished.
