    Some soft yellow gold would set it off and punch it up ...IMO.

    I like your original colors. Very spa-like and relaxing. And the darker colors would be great for contrast. I think you do great with color. I'd steal that color palette in a minute!

    I really like those original colors, too. The only reservation I'd have about them is that lightest red and the lightest brown are pretty similar in shade, so not sure if the contrast would be enough between them.

    So what kind of bargello pattern are you going to do?

    I love your color choices, but I'd add some yellow also. Can't wait to see the finished project. I'm wanting to do one also. Thanks for sharing.
