I would never put beige with it but that is just me. I know you will be happiest if you ask .. tell them your making a table runner! small little thing.. they wont guess.
I agree. Tell them what colors you are using and then turn the table. You are going to put your time and money into this quilt so let it be right. I love RED with black and white. Doing my bathroom in cranberry, black, white and gray. Going to make a quilt to cover my open tall skinny cheap shelf unit that sells at BB&B for over $60.00 with a lower shutter.
