    Pink always goes nicely with browns. Maybe 2 or 3 shades of pink, plus an ecru.

    There is a pattern called "Wickedly Easy Quilt" on the ByAnnie website which is a free pattern. It is an FQ pattern with no matching seams.

    There are some sunflower, and brown eyed Susan blocks I've seen done in browns with a little yellow.Just google either word and you'll see what I mean. Hope that helps.

    I love working with browns. I don't know about the pattern, but would suggest you add an accent of yellow or orange since those are two of the base colors of brown, which is shaded.

    I am currently making a bow tie quilt using the "10 Minute Block". It is made from brown scraps - 6" squares with a dark brown center, 2 medium browns, and 2 tan or tone on tone ecru. It is looking good so far.
