I love scrappy quilts. However, I think, as others have already said, that you should choose a theme and stick with it. 1930's fabrics, civil war, brights etc. I certainly wouldn't mix and match, that's when a quilt starts to look "muddy". The pattern you've chosen is really pretty, and would look lovely in any of the combinations mentions previously. My own humble opinion though, is that while the quilt shown is really pretty, I don't think it goes with the rest of the decor. I'm just sayin'.
