I think you did great. You picked a theme and worked with that.

What a neat quilt!! We are big Mountaineer fans here, too, as our youngest son graduated from there.

WOW! Wonderful job and I see nothing wrong with your choices at all. Your quilting is way beyond me and I am 20 years into the subject. Love making quilts, really hate finishing them. Find a quilt in the colors you love and find like fabrics that work for you. Focus fabric, then supporting cast. Like dinner, main course, and side courses. If you can shop where full coordinated designer lines are carried, they are made to go together. Like what you see, pile them up and then audition them. From what I see you will move to terrific in short order. Thank you.

Found this for you to watch regarding fabric selection.

You can also go to Pinterest to look at quilts and get some inspiration there.

Hope this helps.
