    Hi sewbizgirl. Thank you. I thought that about the red and black too. Yes, it's more of an oriental quilt as the other fabrics I have (not put pics of those on yet) are Japanese (more geisha and japanese patterns). My friend just bought the fabrics you have seen together as I think the colours were the main attraction. Will see how it goes!
