This would be my choice also! Making 2 quilts will, I think, make them even more special for your granddaughters and pink and lavender seem to be "go to" colors for girls! You might also put out the crayons from a color box and ask them to pick their favorite. (You can "control" the choices by taking out the ones you would not want for these quilts.)
The great thing about the reproduction fabrics is that any color goes with them!
