I think the silvery grey would be a better background, you could still use the other fabrics with it. But you know... you might want to look for that ashes of roses grey-pink!

I was looking for a manly quilt for my husband's father and like you decided on a Delectable Mountains variation but I used homespuns.

Depending on the scale of the checks in your fabrics and the size of the blocks, they might be a bit big for the small triangles.
