Hey I need some opions. I picked up this fabric today for my husbands quilt that I will make him for xmas. Im just not sure if they look good together or what exactly to do with it yet. Can ya'll give me some ideas. Thanks Frances
|
I think its a very good combination. Can't wait to see it all put together.
|
Great manly choices.
|
Great colors! It will be a beautiful quilt!
|
ohhhh I can see a couple of blocks. a center fussy cut of the dear with the pine cones as star points and the brown to finish it off. I would also suggest maybe getting some hunter green fabric that matches. there could also be some larger blocks of just the deer with the pine cones and brown surrounding it. kinda like a mutated log cabin.
|
Nice colors!
|
Great colors. I need the pine cone fabric (LOL)! Should make your DH a great quilt.
|
I think they go well together. I would definitely fussy cut square of the deer for the center block and then add to that with solid or pine cones. Then add more blocks of the deer.
|
I like the idea of the deer print in the center and the others for borders. Or several deer blocks with the other used as sashing. can't wait to see what you end up doing
|
Pretty colors, nice manly fabrics. Try to find a pattern that will leave the deer fabric fairly large, put other fabrics around it.
|
I love your fabric choice. Great for a man quilt.
|
love the combo, looks great together. if you are looking for easy pattern maybe a pinwheel or nine patch. i have a magazine that had a deer quilt in it. if you would like it pm me and i can mail it to you monday.
|
These fabrics will make a lovely quilt. Please post a pic when done.
|
Colors all look great together.
|
hey that would be great thanks
|
looks great.I would add some solid black in somehow makes it pop
|
I think your choice of colours are perfect for a man. (and woman of course)
|
I agree.

Nice!!!
|
Great choices.
|
Good Choices!
|
Love those fabrics!!!! It is sure to make a wonderful quilt! :thumbup:
|
They look super together. I think it's harder to find a good pattern for just 3 fabrics than for more, but I agree that you could fussy cut the deer.
|
Those are wonderful fabrics. Your DH is going to love that quilt. I can't wait to see it. Make sure a post a pic.

I think they look great together. But then I chose the same fabrics to make handkerchiefs for my Dad. I like the idea of fussy cutting the deer. Maybe they could be the centers of uneven 9-patches. Be sure to post your quilt when it's finished. Can't wait to see it.
|
I think those are great colors. I am sure he will love them.
|
Lovely choices
|
I think they all work well together.
|
A simple window quilt might be awesome.
|
Fabric looks good together, my Son will be jealous. Keep us posted.
|
they go great together! DO IT! DO IT!
