It amazes me how many think the 'colours' are nice, when I have used some pretty boring fabrics in there!

If you look closely at the light areas you will see shades from pastels in pink, lemon, pale blue, pale green, beige, tan, even bright yellow, but if I used a darker light I would pair it up with a darker dark and vice versa, I think that is the key to success :thumbup:

Thank you again, for showing so much interest in my DH's quilt :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :-D
