I disagree. Trying to determine the pattern in a low contrast quilt gives me the heeby jeebys for lack of a better description.

I do like the soft all pastel florals - am thinking of starting one for myself but will maybe put a little white or cream in there somewhere to give it just a little contrast but keep it soft and soothing looking. Don't even have a pattern thought yet - but hoping to get inspired soon. Any suggestions?
