I make what I like and I don't think about them matching. I have a couple that go with my living room but I put anything out there especially if it is a new quilt I made. I love my quilts so show them at different times and seasonal. Just do what you feel and don't listen to others. We all have our own personalities and likes.

Forget it sweetie I totally agree with Merry!
Get rid of the SIL. LOL

A quilt is like a Persian rug, any one will go with whatever decor you have. Display your quilts!!!!!

I just surround myself with things that make me feel good. To heck with coordination.

Isn't it "funny" how folks just don't understand if you are a bit unique? I quilt with mostly African fabrics and it's really fun watching people's faces when they view my quilts.....my daughter-in-law told me I would "outgrow" my love of bright, bold fabrics! You keep quilting with all the fabrics YOU love and have fun!

Hang paranoid! have you ever heard the phrase, "You can never be too rich or thin."? Well, as a quilter I believe you can never have too many colors. While I tend to often favor "muddier" tones, I also adore the brightest batiks I can get my hands on, plus sunny yellows, and anything else that makes me happy. Life is too short to worry what other people think of our private domains (homes). Let them worry about their own homes, and you do whatever you want to do in yours - as long as it is legal...

Who cares! There is always a place for a beautiful work of art!

Anything colorful adds to a room. Add a candle (even if you never lite it) with one of the colors of the runner and like majic you have something that matches. :thumbup:

Gee, I like to make things for Christmas, Halloween, fall,spring, summer, 4th of July, etc, etc. Not all goes with my color scheme. Good thing the quilt police don't come to my house!!

YOU live in your home you must feel comfortable happy, and safe there any one else is just visiting if they object rember the door they came in also goes out. My friends come to see me not my home decor.
