When my niece's or nephew's get married, on their first anniversary I let them pick the colors. I then pick a pattern and make them a quilt. So here are the colors Neon Green, Hot Pink and Zebra stripes. HELP

I know what you are talking about, my friends daughter likes the same colors!

Take a look at some pics on this site, may be that will help.

What about some HUGS? I know this sounds weird, but I bet it would work. I would try to use the zebra as the focus I think, maybe something along the lines of warm wishes or a d9p would work.

Think of those colors another way - black and white with bright pink and green accents. Doesn't sound quite as bad!! Lots of black and white quilts with bits of red on here. Good luck and give us pictures of course.

A hunters star with the zebra stripe as the main fabric and then the hot pink and lime green as scattered stars.

I agree - can't wait to see what you decide to do! I think it might turn out quite striking with such vibrant contrast.

What about the zebra on the back, and stay with solid-ish blacks and whites on the front? So maybe it wouldn't be so busy that way and you'd have more pattern options.
