    I think it's perfect - don't change a thing!

    I love the blues. I think they are great. Not to dark, not to light.
    Hope you share the quilt when it is complete.
    I love the pattern.

    I do not think it is to dark. You need a contrast so the colors do not look to washed out. Blue is one of my favorite colors.

    This blue give it a bold look. If you want a softer quilt, then get a lighter blue, but this one is fine the way it is.

    It seems to me that the darker solid blue brings out the "other" blue in the print squares. You have a white, a light blue, a medium blue, and then a darker blue. Wow! Now that's careful planning of colors!
