I like your fabrics. I am doing the same BOM. What background fabric are you using?

I am using an off white - sort of cream color. I agree with all of you about the lack of contrast. These are just the first few fabrics I picked. I also want to find fabric with different patterns, but when I was at Joann's they didn't have any.

I like the colors and think they'll go well together.

I love the combination!!!!! Always remember - "My quilt - My rules."

Make it a good day! Edie

They work well in my opinion except for the bottom right color. It seems dull compared to the others.

They all go together but need some pop - add a fabric that isn't so grayed.

I like the colors, but I think the two pinks (?) (top left and top right are too similar, they would blend into each other. Others said it, perhaps more contrast between colors. I am guilty of choosing too-similar colors and while I like it pre-quilt, I have been very unhappy with the result... Good luck on this, we want pics!

that looks pretty close to the colors i used in my peach cobbler quilt....

Not wild about the yellow or brown with the other 3, I do agree it is often hard to tell on the computer. Maybe a purple/blue and a cream on cream. It also depends on the block. I like all of them individually!! Alas I am a fabriholic and have not done the 12 step program....

I quess it may depend on the block your doing. (?) You have 2 peachy colors that appear the same, the green and yellow are similar, and the brown just doesn't fit.
