    This is a snowman project I am working on for my secretary. I am not sure the colors coordinate. Please give me your opinions. I am thinking I need to do something different where the red snowman print is that will match the green/red a little better. Help!

    I agree with Quiltlonger - they are holiday prints.

    I don't like the stripe next to the snowman--it is melting out to nothing. Not interesting. Need a solid next to it.
    Maybe a deep red marble, which would outline the snoman very nicely. Make for more interest. Just my opinion.

    I agree about the stripes, but I was thinking about a dark green, to contrast with the red, IMHO. The red snowman is very pretty.

    Busygranny is right, it is the stripe you are not liking.

    I personally think the first border is the problem, maybe switching the 2 borders.
