Navy blue would be nice.

I agree with Otis and I lean toward the Orange for one of the colors.
Best to play with the colors and look at them from a distance. Let us know what you com up with. I love your choices. |
I don't think that I have ever seen plaid fat quarters before!
Oh, now I see that you are from the UK. Nice selection of fat quarters that you have there! |

I had a thought to maybe make the blocks and then see what you think??? With the beautiful array of colors you have I'm sure it won't be a problem to come up with the sashings.

I would audition the aqua and that goldy-orange color on the far right. The aqua because it is common to most of your pieces, and the orange because it complements the blues and purples. Can't wait to see what it looks like.

OK, this might not win me any prizes, but what about doing a color wash? Arrange your plaids so that they range from darkest to lightest across the top diagonally. Then for the sashing, do it the opposite so that the light plaids have dark sashing and the dark plaids have light sashing. Does that make sense?

I think that black would set those colors off so well.
|
I think black or dark blue would look great!
