I like Shabby Chic, but it can be taken to an extreme. I use a lot of her ideas and sort of mix it up with all the rest of my stuff. A quilt in Shabby Chic would/should be quietly flowery and sweet looking, at least that's MHO. No bright colors. I made my DD one once for her first apartment. It wasn't a particular pattern, but just followed the idea of large soft colored flowers like Cabbage Roses. If it looks faded it's right, I think.
