If you take the fabrics you have chosen for your quilt and lay them out and do something to, in a sense, take the color away, you can get a better feel for the variety of color intensity your fabrics have. You can take a black and white picture or get one of those clear red things that you lay over your fabrics. If there is not some good contrast, where some fabrics look dark and others look light, even though your fabrics are different colors, they will all kind of run together. I guess the term "gray scale" comes from what they look like if you make a black and white picture. How much gray do you see? You need some blacks and whites in there. Did I make any sense?
