    I think you should make the triangle quilt, but really you cannot go wrong. I am 100% sure she will love it when it is finished (and I look forward to seeing it)! ~smile~

    I would go with a black or a very dark grey. Fabulous collection of fabrics and colors.

    Thank you everybody for your replies. Gee, I love this forum!

    Another choice. The fabrics look so well side by side that I thought of doing a simple block quilt with no sashing or background.

    What do you think?

    Yes they do. Plus that gives you GREAT background for some fancy FMQ.

    This looks great. Tomboyish with a touch of femininity.

    IMHO White would be to stark and take away rather than add. I would try to find a dove gray or silver.

    A navy or other dark blue might work, depending on her color preferences.
