Question About Baltimore Album
Does it HAVE to be that funky green and odd red? I know I can make whatever I want. It could be purple and orange. But what I am thinking is all the ones I have seen online that are considered traditional have those colors.

Traditional red and green colors for Baltimore Album quilts are nice but not necessary--think creative license here!!
One of the most stunning Baltimore Album quilts I ever saw was at the Houston quilt show years ago, done by Japanese quilter Yukiko Hirano in teal, lime green, hot pink, purple and black with white dots. I could not stop looking at it. When it was featured on the cover on Quilter's Newsletter magazine several months later, I bought the issue just because it was on the cover.
So go ahead and choose the palette the pleases you and don't give it another thought.
