It does not matter really what others think of your quilt. But it does matter that you don't like it. If you do not think you will want to work on it due to to the colour, change it. You could incorporate a dark blue or a soft blue or turquoise, for instance. Whatever makes you want to look forward to sewing and then giving it is the ticket. Get some scraps or some clothes of different colours you think will go with it, and then decide what looks best. Then choose that shade to work with the other ones. Nice work so far!

I like it and I think it will be fine.
Just a thought...check out the Fat Quarter Shop. http://www.fatquartershop.com/ They have some great bright colors for girls and for boys too and do international shipping.

I think you have very good contrast between the yellow, pink, flower print and brown. They are showing more Brown's in young children's items girls and boys. At least here in the States. The turquoise is a good idea too, if that appeals to you and you are able to get what you want. Alternating between the brown and turquoise would make it brighter. You are doing very well on your first quilt!

Hi there, once again
So here is what I have for now.. Borders are missing, but they are on the way
What do you think on quilting method? Today I will receive my darning foot, so I will be able to make a free motion quilting. Or FMQ would be not that great idea? Or should I choose walking foot and do straight lines? Maybe stitch in the ditch?
