The pattern shows a quilt with yellows and blues...so you can do with just 2 colors...just half one color and half the other...and variations of each color..such as 6 reds and 6 yellows....it will work!

I made a YBR quilt all in yellows for my parents, so just one color in different tones will work fine. I think yellow and red would be lovely. Throw in a little cream color if you think it needs something else. To me, black would be too startling a contrast but then I personally prefer lighter colors. Please post when you're done so we can see how it turns out.

I have made yellow brick road twice. Maybe it is not right but I treated it like a scrap quilt and just used whatever fabric I had in a certain shade family (one blue; one green) and added lights. I was very happy with it. Wanted to use up scraps that were left to me from a long (40 years ago) passed away aunt as a sort of tribute and I was a new quilter.

exactly always use odd and 7 different works great...I'd go ahead and make it with the yellow and red, I think that could be pretty and I bet really special to them!!
