Need Help Choosing...
 
4 Attachment(s)
I guess there is such a thing as too many choices! I came up with some different color schemes and now I can't decide which way to go with this carousel quilt. Normally I love batiks, but then I came across these William Morris prints and really digging them as well.

I'm wondering if I can get some help - which color scheme do you like best?

The first one is lovely.

I'm loving coloway D, the last one, but whichever one you choose, I can't wait to see the finished one!!! They are beautiful !!

nativetexan 11-04-2016 11:19 AM

i guess i'm more of an A and D but b is good too!

tapper 11-04-2016 11:28 AM

Like A and B but leaning more toward A.

feline fanatic 11-04-2016 11:31 AM

B but I have always been partial to red

quiltsRfun 11-04-2016 11:31 AM

I like the one with red.

barny 11-04-2016 11:37 AM

I love the first one. The turquoise goes so well with the tans and browns. Gorgeous. But whatever you do will be wonderful.

quilter2theend 11-04-2016 12:47 PM

I like B, and then D.

IQ2 11-04-2016 12:51 PM

To me, A shows the elements the most clearly. I love that one.

daisydawg 11-04-2016 12:59 PM

Love A the best.

gramajo 11-04-2016 01:04 PM

I like A the best, but B has the bright colors that represent most carousels.

UncleGravy 11-04-2016 01:13 PM

Thanks, y'all are the best! I wanted something a little different for a carousel, but was worried A might be a little too 'masculine'.

D, but I would try to add just a bit more of the pink/red to it.

bakermom 11-04-2016 01:50 PM

Top one for sure. Like the contrast

Tartan 11-04-2016 02:12 PM

Any of them would be lovely but my favourite is the first one!

bjchad 11-04-2016 02:22 PM

I like both A and B. But any of them would work well.

maryb119 11-04-2016 02:52 PM

I vote for A.

geevee 11-04-2016 03:19 PM

I'm a turquoise girl so A would be my choice.

RedGarnet222 11-04-2016 03:52 PM

I agree with IQ2 A is the best in my opinion.

bernamom 11-04-2016 04:06 PM

I like A the best, but I also like d (it has a softer look)

jillmc 11-04-2016 04:11 PM

I like A the best. That border is gorgeous!!!

ube quilting 11-04-2016 04:26 PM

I like the first one the best but just to be sure I think you should make one of each.
peace

me too. I like a the most

pocoellie 11-04-2016 05:36 PM

I love all of them but I think I like A best. My question is, WHERE did you find those fabrics?

joyce blint 11-04-2016 05:40 PM

How about one each of #1 and #2? I couldn't chose between them.

NJ Quilter 11-04-2016 06:28 PM

I like the red 'b' as well. Regardless of which you choose, it will be lovely.

Bluelady 11-04-2016 06:35 PM

D .. classic. the colors are subtle yet strong but the colors do not detract from the quilt like the ones with too many colors fighting for attention. I would probably reverse the the colors in the border though and make it dark grey with turquoise ribbons

sewbizgirl 11-04-2016 07:37 PM

All are stunning, but I like it with the red the best.

kwiltkrazy 11-04-2016 08:19 PM

B---real partial to red. Seems to stand out more

Reba'squilts 11-05-2016 02:32 AM

I like a,b & d. I know, no help at all! Nice prints!!

Sleepy Hollow 11-05-2016 02:41 AM

I'd be torn between the first two. Definitely not too masculine, or too feminine.

coopah 11-05-2016 04:52 AM

I'm with the A group. Personally, if I never see another aqua (or turquoise) and red combo again, I'd be extremely happy. It has been overworked, so I'd say anything BUT B.

grannie cheechee 11-05-2016 05:08 AM

I like A, but which one do you like??

lovelyl 11-05-2016 05:13 AM

B, followed by A.

sprice 11-05-2016 05:23 AM

First one is my choice. Beautiful!

lfletcher 11-05-2016 05:27 AM

Wow! You can't go wrong with any of them, but if I have to pick, I will choose A.

EmiliasNana 11-05-2016 05:34 AM

I like A & B as the darker colors help "pop" the details of the gorgeous design.
