I have attached the four final choices for a quilt for the master bedroom. I love all of them (especially plaid) and DH jumped in to help with choices (first time ever) and his top two choices are Spinning Wheels of Color (SWC) and Algonquin Charm (AC). We had planned to do the room in Hunter Green and Navy which works for the AC pattern. I could come up with 8 colors for the AWC with the color pallet of a painting we have in the room. It would be a wheel of muted (not pastel) blue, green, lavendar, terra cotta, a mutted butter yellow, burgundy, rose and cream. The problem with choosing SWC is that I can't visualize the rest of the decor of the room. The room also tends to be a little dark (good for sleeping, gloomy in the daytime) so, any ideas for paint etc?

third, I would use the apricot color of the SWC myself, but I love deep rich colors on the walls.

If the room is already gloomy paint with a lighter color. It will help lighten up the room. As well as using a semi gloss instead of a satin or a flat paint. It will help the light bounce off of the walls.
I like the spinning wheel of color. You could paint with the lightest shade of blue or even white. Also gives you lots of choices for accents for throw pillows, curtains and such!

I like the 2nd one.

I'm surprised at the other choices, because I prefer the first one for a bedroom by far. The white in it adds brightness, the blue is very calming, and the arrangement is balanced and tranquil.

I can't help you. I love all of them.

I like the first one best. Second place goes to the last one.
