I personally like the yellow, but if you aren't happy with it - it won't grow on you. This is a lesson I learned from one of my quilts.

If you really aren't happy - change it before it is too late.

I think the yellow makes it look cool, but that is my opinion and unless you are going to mail it to me :wink: then I would do what you like as you are the one who will be bundled up under it. You're doing a great job... I love these quilts but haven't gotten the courage up to try it yet.

I like the yellow in your quilt

Thank you everyone for helping me decide about the yellow squares. I am going to leave them in, I think I will like it better with a zinger as so many of you have said. Thanks again. Carol

I like the yellow too. If you decide to take it out I think you would want to replace it with a light color otherwise everything would blend.

I, too, would leave the yellow in. I think it provides a good contrast to the other colors. It's looking great to me.

Beautifully put together. The colors flow well IMHO.

Hi Watson's Mom! I was thinking about this quilt today and wondered what ever happened? Did you finish it and post it? Did I miss it? I am glad you decided to leave the yellow in. I think it is going to be beautiful, or is beautiful if I missed it. Let me know Please.

I like the yellow, but what you like is what matters. It looks like it might be your transitional section, like Dunmar does. I think it looks great. Good luck, I am dying to do another bargello, with two family color ways, like Dunmar does. Hers are fantastic.

I'd leave the yellow in. It will make the design sing and zip along. I like it.

Lilrain 12-02-2010 12:02 AM

i tend to agree with you, the yellow is the only fabric that doesn't seem to fit. replacing it with another fabric would change the whole look of the quilt. Why don't you audition some fabrics by cutting squares and laying them over the top of the yellow and see what you like.

I like the yellow.

Your opinion is what counts most.
I love the yellow. It makes the eye travel over the quilt.

Hi Watson's mom. Sorry for your loss. I too loss my lovely Whiskey in November and it is tough.

I love the look of the bargello that you are making and the yellow sits just fine as it is. It will look absolutely lovely and it does need a little uplifter. I love your colour choices. They are absolutely stunning! :thumbup:

I would probably go with a softer yellow similar tone to your purple. Yellow and purple are contrasting colors and they are far enough apart the two of them would pop and the other colors would tone down. Hope this makes sense.
