    Default Is this a good colour selection

    I'm planning on making a quilt for a fundraising auction at the 4-H conference the end of March. What do you think of this? I'm thinking Warm Wishes or Jacob's Ladder or Twisted Garden (?) - a combination of snowball and boxed blocks. Not sure if it will be bed size or lap size.

    I think these selections would make a great 4H themed quilt. Keep us posted as you make it.

    I like the purple. Green and purple always go together.

    Not sure of the purple and to me, the green fabric on the right is too blue. Just my opinion...

    Purple is always right with green - adds a nice accent. I wish I could settle on 6 or 7 fabrics. Mine always have so many. I think you are on the right track.

    I like the colors and prints you have chosen. I think a quilt made from them will appeal to 4-H auction bidders!
