    Probably different shades of blue and tan. Think beachy.

    Today I like the turquoise/red combo. Maybe next week it'll be black and white with lime. Every time someone posts a quilt I change my mind.

    Here is a quilt I am working on. Maybe the blocks will give you an Idea of which three look great together. I love them all.

    hmm, right now I'm playing with emerald green, dark blue, and rust/orange. Or maybe the green, rust/orange, and deep purple. I'm into high contrasts that will really pop

    I love all things batik. I'm currently working on a really great pink and grey quilt. But I also love the idea of green, blue and purple.

    Let us know what you decide!

    Purple, blue and aqua, I love that combo. But I love batiks so just about any combo works for me.
