I think so. As long as you have a 3rd color (light) for the background.

Would greatly depend on the fabric and shades to each color you used, don't you think? Contrast on this quilt is important for sure.

It depends on where you put the brown. If you make the X in brown you may lose the blue.

Any good very brief words you think I should put on the front?

"Made with love" and "with love" were all I could think of. I could really use some ideas here too.

Don't feel bound by ivory/cream/beige ... if the browns/blues are white based, white will be a perfect match and you will have a fresh, crisp quilt. Beautiful!!
