Elephant, yes or no to the black??

Do you thing the black would look ok in my elephant quilt? It will be used for eyes and ears? Thank you.

Which pattern is it? If the ears are full out, I think black might over power the body. Pretty fabrics!
|
Too high contrast. A grey or a blue/grey would look better if you want to go dark.

It's like the one I made.
|
I'd do grey ears, dark grey or brown eyes. Otherwise all attention goes straight to black.
|
I like that dark grey that is in the toes.
|
Thank you, this one is all purples, really have to think on this one before starting.
|
Perhaps you could use that dark green for the eyes.
|
Thank you, I was thinking the same thing, I'll switch the dark with a light??

The eyes are fairly small so it should not overpower. What you might consider (if the ears are very big) is to quilt over the black with a variegated green/blue thread. Maybe multiple echo stitching lines within the ears. This could tone down a large area of black.
