different shades of pinks and green with white
|
My daughter loves the quilt I made for her to take to college. It is a d9p. The colors are black/white fabric combo white/black fabric combo with a bright pink print, this pattern is young and fun to sew, She loves this quilt! I also used the same pattern and the black/white combos with lime green batik beautiful also. :idea:
|
Black with any other color seems to be my favorite (typically red or purple).
If this were me, I'd be very tempted to make a quilt with black on black, black on white, and white on black fabrics. I think it would be very striking and classy in a white room |
I would first check the school colors. Then find prints that include those colors in patterns that reflect who she is - girly, girly or sports or horses or whatever she likes.
|
I did one for my neice I used everything from
birght yellows pinks blues purples peach along with pastell collors I made her a nine patch just beautiful |
How about going with the school colors where she is going.
|
Try looking at clothes for color combinations.
|
Take her shopping with you to pick you the fabric and pattern. Then you'll be giving her exactly what she wants!
|
I wouldn't copy most of the magazines as they may have good quilt designs but a lot of their colour combinations are really dreadful.
The most important part is value rather than colour, in my opinion.As long as you choose a conmbination of light and dark contrasts it will look a lot better than a whole lot of middle range colours that blend together and do not have any 'oomph'. |
