Okay, I think I have figured out what I want to use. I have had the fabric I'm using for focus fabric for years and didn't know what to do with it. I think this will make a really colorful, beautiful quilt. Any of them you don't like?

Mtngrl -- I love that rose fabric, it was one of the first fabrics I purchased, I had forgotten I have it. It and the coordinating fabric are two of my favorites. You have some other good color choices there as well. Cannot wait to see the finished product.

I would have also picked the grey for background, if you want to use black as your main color here is what I'd do if this was my quilt...of course I have to say, that any way you put it, it'll probably be pretty, because they all play nicely together, but based on Missy's guidelines I'd probably do this:
Color 2: Dk yellow
Inner Border: Dark green
color3: pink/red
color 4: white
accent: the lighter green
2nd accent: lighter yellow
Of course, keep in mind that I have no clue what the pattern looks like, LOL.
mtngrl, yes, I love the addition of pink and yellow in there. If you need suggestions on which color to use for what part, let me know, picking out colors and fabrics is my absolute favorite part. But yes, definitely include the pink in there.
:thumbup:
My choices and sizes are: Background grey, #1 black/brown, Inside border dark green, then I am not sure
Color 2: Dk yellow
Inner Border: Dark green
color3: pink/red
color 4: white
accent: the lighter green
2nd accent: lighter yellow
Of course, keep in mind that I have no clue what the pattern looks like, LOL.
