That's an adorable quilt!
also have come to question my ability to pick fabrics lately! LOL!!! I have come to buy 1/8 or 1/4 yd of the fabrics and make a sample block to make sure i like my vision. I just have to make sure i can get back to the store quick enough before it's all gone.
of course, that doesn't work if you only order online or can't get to the store easily.
