first go to paint store, get all the blue paint chips samples, try them out in the room you want the quilt, find the best ones, now when you go to the fabric store you have samples of what goes best in your room, find the fabrics, no worries. have fun, happy stitching~~~~~~~~~~~`~

This past summer, same thing, I had a chance to spend a day in Lancaster Pennsylvania and many Amish quilt shops.. Left with nothing.
I love to quilt, I love the whole process of piecing, applique, free motion quilting. But when it comes to picking out the fabric, I'm at a loss.
I did buy one 1/4 yard piece to check the color out in my room, brought it home, didn't like it! On to another shop sometime next week! Argh.
