    After starting one quilt top after another just to stop for one reason or another I am finally committed! And very excited for the first time in quite a while. Our bedroom is green, gold, and red. Finally I am listening to my DH and working with larger blocks. I need more practice cutting and measuring before I get to anything fancy!

    Well, my husband likes it as is - so he is hoping to just go with the colors we have. But I am thinking maybe a brown . .

    very nice selection...you did a good job matching and keeping the tones even. You will love it when it's quilted. If you can afford it, I'd send it out to a Longarmer...you will be able to get some beautiful quilting on it, which will show beautifully against those fabrics. You won't regret it!
