My daughter has a 3 month old daughter and the theme of her room is pink & brown. Their 14 month old son's room is pale green & brown. I'm making tag blankets for each & they have brown in them.

I have several fabrics that are pink and brown and blue and brown. They look good together. I like the color choice myself.

I both of those color combinations. Who cares whether they're outdated.

I like those combos. I go by what appeals to me and don't care if "dated". I think it's more about what colors play well together and what you enjoy sewing on.

I can't see how they would go out of fashion but even if they did, I would still use them. I love blue and brown together.

What is it with "dated?" I hear it on HGTV all the time! "Ohhh! I couldn't live with (perfectly good kitchen) these appliances or this cabinet top! It's so 80's!

Here is the scoop on dated. By the time you get the quilt made, whatever color and whatever pattern you use, it will have been obsoleted by someone who likes orange and pink for little boys' quilts. Use the colors you like and remember that whatever fashion seems obsolete today will be back, maybe as early as tomorrow. froggyintexas

I don't care whats in or out I sew what I like mostly!!!

How can any color be dated? If you like them, use them; it's that simple! Tks. G

I agree with the others. If you like it, use it.

It is a matter of who the quilt is for that matters
