Adding more color, especially blue, would be really pretty for the BR with wood. This probably would be better as a lap quilt being all the colors of tile. Better for you to accomplish and still get the queen you want done. There's always the choice of ditching the idea and changing it enough to fit what you want for your queen. You would still have designed it yourself with the inspiration from your tile. But, just a new thought, what about using batiks in the lap quilt, maybe not "warm" enough. But it might give it more texture. Maybe make the "tile" appear as marble. Not sure how it would quilt for the grout. Sounds like you may need to work up some samples. I've heard that EQ has a pretty steep learning curve but is really a robust program. Maybe it's a blessing it isn't written for mac. LOL. Good luck with your cousin's projects. Yeah, you get more time to play!!!!
