Personally I like the light color instead of bright pink--but about project that you think "what was I thinking!"--yes,yes,yes--but amazingly sometimes once the quilting is done they metamorph into something you really like--so put it aside for now and be sure to come back to it!
I have a baby blanket right now that the g-ma and I bought the material together for a "north woods" theme--wow! It just doesn't look good--think the values don't contrast enough?? Anyway, when I send to the new Mom , I'll explain what we were thinking--but blame the fact that we had lunch with alcohol before we went shopping!
