Beside having her give you pictures of quilt patterns that she likes, you should have her give you paint chips of the colors she actually wants. Is she wanting the clear pure hues, hue (color)
tones with white or shaded with black? Unless you have a really good color wheel that you can show and discuss with her, she needs to go to a paint store and pick out the colors she likes. Then does she want these colors in patterns? Small patterns? Large patterns? floral? paisleys? You have NO workable information at all! Good Luck.

Not so feminine and ruffled looking.
Not the cutesy look.
Its clean cut with a country touch instead of all modern.

Taiboo,
I had fun speculating as to what "modern country" might mean and even more fun reading the interpretations of others.
PLEASE PROMISE THAT YOU'LL LET US ALL KNOW HOW YOUR CLIENT DESCRIBES IT WHEN YOU MEET WITH HER!!!
Inquiring minds want to know :-)

I just made a quilt for my mother-in-law, based on the colors she gave me, and I showed her some fabric I picked out, which she liked. The whole thing was pretty stressful for me, I have never made a quilt for someone this way, I usually make the quilt my way, and then give it as a gift. I have it finished, but haven't had a chance to give it to her yet. I'm really hoping she likes it, though I still an nervous about it.
