Hi Everyone

I have these three fabrics in my stash and I want to use them in a baby quilt. The main colour is not quite orange but also not quite yellow, sort of a cross between the two. What other colours do you think I could use that would go well with these?

it would be easier to see the color it's going with in same picture

Tartan

Fabrics look nice together. If you can find a solid or strip in that orange/yellow, I would add that. I would say the kind of tan in the flower fabric but that might look too heavy for a baby quilt.

marand

Something to make it broghten and pop. HOw about fabric with complimentary colors (blues/violets). Look at your color wheel for ideas.

If you want a quiet quilt then I would add a light beige. If you want a brighter idea then a solid yellow like the flower fabric.

I'm with Marand, go for opposite of the color wheel, cool blues or greens.

Yellow and gray seems to be a popular color combination.

I think teal would add a nice pop to this quilt.

You're kind of set up to do sort of a monotone. You take the same color and vary the shade. Some get very dark which gives you contrast but also is the same color.
Go to a paint store or home depot with a sample of your fabric and select a paint card that matches your fabric and gives you the variations in shade. Then find colors that match the different shades on that card. I think it could be really neat.

What color is the middle of the flowers? I'm hoping it's a warm brown. You could use that color. If it's black, you could use it. But I'd be afraid it turn into a Halloween quilt unless you use another color, say...a soft pink?

Some variation of the tan flower center. Doesn't have to match, just be in the same color family.

A very tiny border of some other color....teal maybe?

It kind of depends on what you want. I like the idea of all the same colors, makes it seem peaceful.
