I agree, you need the contrast and it would still tie in with all the colours.

I'm a visual person too. I'd lay them on various color fabrics and see which one I liked best. Gorgeous work so far. Love your choices.

O.K. so how do you make this a quilt as you go? That is beautiful, but I don't know how you not have seams showing on the back of your quilt.

I also think burgney would look great. It would be hard to find a darker blue to go with the blue.

I would audition the different suggestions in your bedroom, on the bed, then step back to the doorway and see which looks the best with your walls. You could even snap a picture of each, although sometimes the colors in a snapshot are not true. Since we aren't seeing your walls, we can't really say what would look the best.

Such beautiful blocks, I would certainly use white! Can't wait to see the finished quilt!

Darker one of colors. Try some colors and lay squares down on top to see what you like.
