I tend to sort fabrics by bright or duller....but usually that ends up being that I sort by whether it has white in it (one pile) or a shade of cream/tan/beige (the other pile). I don't mix white with cream/tans/beiges.

I always go for muted. Bright just isn't my style. But you do as you want...its your creation :) Please post a photo when you are finished with it.

I vote for adding them all in.

It is up to you. This is where the design board comes in handy. The question is what look do you want to achieve.
I probably would use all the fabrics together. there is always the light, medium, dark rule. |
Go for it, they look great!

I have the same red fabric with the little star. I love it.
