    You could add some of the fuchsia if you don't like all the purple.

    I agree, no such thing as too much purple but if you want to add something, I think a little black would be nice.

    I like them both, but I lean towards #2. Great fabric by the way. I love purple and teal together.

    Purple is my favorite is my favorite color! However, a little would break it up a bit! Good luck.

    Being really honest, I like the combination of the two fabrics pictured a lot, and I'm not a big fan of purple! Since I don't know your pattern I can't say whether it's too much purple or not but if a third color is needed I'd vote for white. Definitely. It's going to be a pretty quilt.

    I see using black-blues-white, and that rosey pink. Have you got a pattern yet. Will be glad to see it when your project/quilt done. Take care Don-isewman

    Love your fabrics. Like your 10x10" idea too. The big print will showcase well in that size. You could add some white too to off set all the purple. Either way it is going to be a pretty quilt.
