I think the Jewel Box with the black background would look great. I have some fabric that I have been wondering what to make. the Jewel Box would be ideal. Thanks for also helping me decide. Have fun with the colours

You're right! How neat! Your quilt is great.

dkabasketlady - Yep he is definitely a keeper. I seem to be color challenged and he often helps me out when I am stuck on a color(s) for a project.

DH now tells me he really, really likes Moonlight Dancers. I want to use all my colors and I have a few more than the pattern calls for and a little less yardage...hmmm...I will have to see what I can come up with.

Thanks for all the input.

I used very similar colors in a Mariners Compass and it turned out beautifully.

I had similar fabrics and made a Bars of Gold/Chinese Coin wall hanging with black background and sashing.

they would be wonderful with the rise and shine blocks...it is in the pictures and tutorial section.http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-49580-1.htm

what ever you decide will be great because they are great colors! guys are so good at picking out colors. i used to always have my sons or nephew put together color runs for me if i was having a problem picking fabrics.
