    The fabrics are lovely.

    I second the suggestion to get another coordinating fabric that is darker than the ones you show.

    Right now, the overall effect is "medium"

    I got a book yesterday....quilts for dorms..that may be a good quilt for that fabric...uses big chunks of fabric...and goes together quickly ..kind of like turning twenty.

    Or I would use it in a Big and Bold quilt pattern by cozy quilts designs.

    Just got back from JAs. Found all the fab but had to go to 2 stores..what a pity. Now get it wash up and ready to go. Even decded on a pattern. Two dif sizes of flying geese. Made the pattern before so I know it's easy and no surprised. Took everyone's suggestion and bought dark brown fab, too.
