I did a hot pink, vivid orange, lime green and variations of all the above, for my granddaughter - it was so bright, it just lightened up her room which has a north window and no other light except for electricity -and it made her room look beautiful.... I did throw pillows too out of the scraps left over, adn she has pillows galore on her bed; wish I could learn to post - I'd get it on here.

How about adding some deep red apple color and yellow banana also purple grapes and dark purple eggplant also watermelon red. grapefruit orange. Remember to have an effective log cabin you need lights on one side and darks on the other. Would you be using bright lights or blues and whites. Pleas post a picture as you begin! Have FUN!
