Those fabrics are great! I wouldn't eliminate any fabrics until she puts out some clues. Remember Allietare? Some of the blocks were large (by Bonnie standards) so your blue could work.

Even if it ends up being cut smaller - maybe it will be part of a 3.5" HST with the orange - then I think it would be fine.

I've made dozens of scrap quilts and just when I think a fabric is too light, too blue, not green enough, by the time I get towards the end of the project and need more of a certain color - and don't want to cut into yardage, my standards are lowered (or vision broadened?) and I end up deciding to include pieces I had originally crossed of the list.

Up close a fabric might not work, but as part of a quilt, it's just one or two small pieces and it's fine.
