I LOVE the plaid!! This is a really neat little quilt, there's lots of movement, it's got dignity with the Jacobean fabric, and it's simple with the house block. All the other little blocks add a kind of sweet whimsy...You're on a really cool roll...take a chance and keep the momentum. The brown is nice and safe. again, I love the plaid.

I would go with the brown - and what a GREAT job!

I LOVE the plaid!!!!!!!!!! It's intriguing to me all the opinions and ideas we see on the board. That's what makes living and getting to know others such fun. To me there is no question . . . I immediately was more drawn by the plaid, but in the end . . . it will be your decision . . . and that's what makes our work so individually unique! Blessings to you . . .

I like the brown, the plaid is nice but it's too busy for this quilt. Beautiful quilt!

I like the dark brown. It makes the wall hanging non gender specific. And it compliments and frames the flowered fabric beautifully. And I agree with auntpiggylpn, using it for the inner & outer border keeps the consistency. I don't like the red plaid at all and the light beige does nothing for the piece. Your gut feeling was right going with the dark brown.
