Do these colors look ok together, starting my second quilt...

Someone said the outer border takes over its not blue like in the picture its Turquoise..Do you think that will be ok or do I need to do something else..Even though everything is cut out..

And I must say this one is so much easier than the first one I did...hehe

And there more to the quilt than just what you see...

I hope it turns out ok..

And thanks for the reply...

They look great together but that outter border takes over!

Qbee

Can the outer blue border be made smaller? I think it seems to "take over" because it is so much wider. That way the ony recutting you would have to do is to maybe cut it in half to make thinner strips. Just a thought.

I think you will find it is more interesting when you put it together, with the borders NOT being all the same width.

Thank you for your advice, I'm really new at this and scared not to follow the pattern as far as the cutting, so I will let it be and see what happens, I got most of this fabric from that Estate Sale so, if it don't turn out like I'm hoping at least I hadn't wasted to much money on it...LOL

I agree.

i think i would cut down the width of the tourquoise border. great looking quilt.

I think they look good together, and I didn't think the turquoise border was taking over until someone else pointed it out, and then I thought well, maybe. But is there going to be sashing? A darker sashing might sort of reduce that effect, I think.
