    Thanks for the ideas. I have looked at this fabric a long time. It's time to get it cut.

    The palette is endless with dark fabrics. I would steer clear of the gray's - tan's and white. But Pastels or Brights would work beautifully. I can picture these with the brilliant blue and aqua Batiks in a Snails Trail.

    I love yellow, so I would go with yellows or yellow and white to lighten it up.

    Using idigo, I would audition a tan or harvest gold tone like blue jeans? That is a classic look. White would really pop!

    I love this quilt also, I have all the fabrics to make it, it would be wonderful in those Indigos! I particularly like that they are reversible.
