I need your honest thoughts on the color of this...
 

I am horrible with colors... so please be honest. This is called Boxy Stars from Quiltville site. This is lots of fun to make and very easy..even for a less then a year quilter.

Thanks for any ideas you have....

Perfect! Great quilt!

I think your colors are fine but the main thing is that you like them!

I might try this pattern next. It looks like fun. I like reds and pinks, so I give your colors a thumbs up.

Every time I look at your quilt project my eyes pick up something else. Different patterns in it, love it you did a great job on it.

I like the colors together and I like the pattern. Do you like it? That is what is important. The colors are not something I would have chosen, but we all pick what we are draw to.

Great fabric choices! Question is~Do you like them-? :)

I like it - so festive!

I think it loods wonderful!

I like more contrast, but subtle differences in color can be a good combination too. I think you are doing a lovely job.

I like the blocks -- you did a great job with the color selection.

the colors are great! you're doing a good job

I love it. It's my favorite color!

Really it's a two-color quilt--red and white. And that's a classic.

If you feel unsure with color, this is a good way to start. Choose 2 or 3 colors that you love together, and limit yourself to them. Just see if you like the way they look together. Your eyes will know. Your brain doesn't need to get too involved.

perfect, nice contrast.

perfect, nice contrast. What pattern is this? I like it

I like it. Keep going, you're doing great!

Looks really pretty!

I like the colors 'cause red is my favorite. I also like your small print and large print balance. Nice quilt.

Nice job with good contrast. I've made several boxy stars, a really neat pattern.

I do like the colors, What is it that you do not like?

It looks nice. You will have a pretty quilt when you're done.

I like the colors.

Beautiful and I love the colors and pattern. Great job just keep going, will make a beautiful quilt.

I think it looks great!

I really like the colors and fabrics you used in these blocks!

Great looking quilt.

I think it looks great. I like how the pattern makes it look like it's a two sided fabric.

Looks great to me

Beautiful quilt love the colors!

Looks great to me.

I think the colors look good together.

I have made three or four quilts and table toppers using this pattern - I love it.
One thing I have done is keep the inside star colors close to the same - then the outside box doesn't show up so much - its one of those patterns that can look different depending on the colors and placement. I think you did a great job. Just keep going - when you finish and get all the blocks together - it can look completely different. Good luck.

I think it looks great!!

It looks great to me. Color, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. So go with what YOU like. There are no quilt police here. LOL

I think it is very pretty. I like the colors, too.

I like the colors but you are the one that has to live with it.

I think you do very well with colors. I will admit colors can be intimidating to me too. I'm a beginner and am uncertain of my color choices at times also. I'm working on a Log Cabin that's I'm still not certain I chose the right colors but only time will tell. I think it looks great and I like the pattern. I find it interesting that the pattern changes with placement as suggested up above. I will have to try this pattern. Thanks for sharing.

Can someone explain what this post is about? Are we suppose to vote?
Thanks,
Nancy

love youe your fabrics and the pattern. You did a great job. Very nice!
