    Default which do you guys think?

    I just want to make a simple strip baby/toddler quilt as the first quilt from this fabric (I have 5 yards - silly me)

    when I put the tan and brown I like it but I wonder if it needs contrast. Then with white added I am just not sure. What do you guys think?

    the plaid fleece is the backing....

    I vote the tan also. The white pops too much in the photo.

    Thanks guys! I felt like the white too much too. Now I am wondering and leaning towards a thinner white border with the tan middle sashing.... processing.. processing.. processing....

    How about a strip of green instead of the white?

    Agree ... skip the white.

    And I hope you are planning the plaid for the backing!
