Okay! So here's my best attempt picking!! (also may pick a different 2 tone brown/ and who knows find a different selection all together..lol) but anyway here is my question on these fabrics! I put them in order of how I understood the fabric selection directions feeling as the stripe was more of a "light" value?! My concern is that fabric B being so much yardage and being the brown will make the quilt dark but then again the other 3 are light so maybe it will balance? Other thing is I love the tone on tone green but such a large print figured it wouldn't go for C (since asking for small/medium print) so put it as D being the least yardage?! hmmm!?!

So I guess the other fabric selection option is:
A: Multi color stripe
B: Two tone green
C: Some sort of Brown
D: Blue

Thoughts?!
Any insight being more experienced with laying out a quilt and color selections?!

Thanks for your help!
I hope to go today!

Personally, I don't like stripes, but the colors that you have chosen to go with the strips, work very well together!
