I posted pics earlier of this quilt I am doing for a friends grandson. Now my problem is what to use for the binding. I do not have enough of either solid color to use by itself and really did not want to buy more if I can help it. Do you think if I combined the 2 colors that would be too much? Any suggestions are most appreciated.

What about doing a two toned binding. The front ends up having a different color that the back.
Here's a tutorial online: http://www.instructables.com/id/Two-Tone-Quilt-Binding/
