I would not introduce another blue - hard to blend blue - something in the light rose shade - as in your prints. Beautiful soft colors - you want to keep it that way.

I vote for a pale pink. Will be nice with the block scheme, and also be nice with your cobalt blue walls! JMHO.

Absolutely agree and was wondering why no one suggested this. :shock: Only thing is, I would probably use dark rose or deep green instead of burgandy. Given the fact that your room is dark (at least I think that's what you said), I think those deeper colors would set it off beautifully.

Lost in fabric stash, Cherie :lol:

I like this suggest the best and lean towards a darker color to make it match up with your room and make those blocks pop.

So green or rose gets my vote!

Green, like the leaves in the floral print.

I think the dark burgundy in the rose would be good too

Your blocks are beautiful. I agree with the suggestions to audition different colors/fabrics and see which ones you like best. Will look forward to a picture of the completed quilt. Are you using Betty Cotton's method?

I am using the method I found here, "Ditter's string quilt", it is so easy!

Thanks!

I would go with the darker colors. It would showcase those wonderful blocks.
