It is up to you. If you think it's tacky; is this a gift for someone, or for yourself? If it's for someone else, will you ever see it again?
There are some quilts that I make to the recipients color requirements...and I can't stand the colors. It makes it less enjoyable to make if I don't love at least one of the fabrics. I've learned that I at least pick out one fabric. There are some quilts I give and I only see it once a year, or never again...
