Why not make them in the school colors? that way she will always remember, where she went?

my granddaughters' favorites are a combo of purple; lime green; orange; teal; and light gold put together with black sashing.

Bright colors are nice, but I think you should ask your daughter what color she would like in a quilt if you ever made one for her. Then take it from there, use a color wheel or just look on the internet for samples of colors, quilting catalogs are a good source for color value. Have fun on your trip. I just finished a full size quilt, with matching pillow shams and a window valance, in pinks, white, lavenders and purples for my grandaughter. Am about to quilt one for my grandson, neon green/ black. This colors were their choice.

Brown, beige (or off white) with some deeper green thrown in. My favorite colors are brown (any shade) and Green (any shade), can you tell?
|
Purples, greens and creams. I used these colors in a quilt I made for myself several years ago and they really go together well. I have seen many other quilts using these combinations since then too.
|
Why don't you ask your grand daughter what her favorite colors are. Everyone has different tastes. Example: I hate browns with pinks and blues. But love .... etc, etc.
|
Ask her, what her fav. color is and go from there. Musslin is my favorite back. I have used colors, but always go back to musslin, the quilting shows up so pretty on it.
