LOVE Yellow Brick Road pattern. I have used it so many times. Thing to remember that each size larger requires 6 additional FQ's Plus and additional yard of border fabric for each size larger. It's a really easy pattern, one that I share with all Newbies I meet.

I would go with 3 colors using different shades or prints using those colors as the focus

I have made one with 12 different FQ's with the main focus being a bluish green

I try to use uneven numbers too. I did make two, two fabric quiltsand they turned out great. Always best to do whatever you like.

I just followed the directions... I believe there were 12 (or 13??) different FQ (for a twin size quilt) I used one color - purple, but in different tints and shades and tones. It needs the variation to get the interest... AND to keep track of all the pieces as your'e rearranging the cut pieces! But well worth it!
