I totally agree with the advice about taking out the yellow. Color is my thing, and as a quilting teacher, I help a lot of students with color choices. The yellow is definitely fighting with the rest of the colors. I would use something as muted as possible, as you've got a lot going on with all the different patterns - the eye needs a place to rest!

purple florel where the yellow is that is my choice

I can't figure out whether the green is part of the quilt or what it's laying on. I'm a yellowphine also, but pink or lavender would be nice. Real helpful, huh?

The green is my bed.... hehe. I thought I had mentioned that had no where else to lay it at the time.

I don't mind the yellow, but I think it should be a pastel buttery yellow (more warm, and could be almost a cream). Also, your yellow comes across as a lemon yellow to me, which is too cool and looks greenish. I think a pastel print in light buttery yellow or cream would work well. The only way that you will be able to decide, of course, is to try different fabrics. Good luck! WLee

I'm certainly no expert, but maybe the yellow is just a little bright. I really like the pink/yellow plaid. Can you use that in place of the yellow? Since I now know that the green is not part of it, may I suggest laying your blocks out on different colored backgrounds to see what effect you get? Your colors will look completely different against solids of different colors.

Oh, I thought the green was part of the quilt...with that said, I would (IMO) I would soften up the yellow, still keep it yellow just a softer yellow. Can't wait to see what you come up with it is a very nice pattern :thumbup:

To me, it's the green that's wrong. Too much olive-y. Maybe it's just the photo. I like the yellow, though.

K so here is what it is going to look like I went with purple and yellow for the borders and purple for the inset triangles and I am just loving it now! I think the purple with the yellow border just brought the whole thing together!
