    I make a crib set and cant decide whether I should keep the colors apart or mix them.
    What do you think?
    Thanks for looking
    Granny

    oh my...just realized by looking at the third pic that I have right and left ones. can something be done to avoid that?

    I like them mixed although you do loose that secondary large pinwheel. Very pretty.

    I keep looking back and forth and can't decide. I like them both.

    The second picture with the blue really pops at me.

    Such cute blocks. Love the colors/fabrics you chose. I like them all together to get that secondary pinwheel effect. You could make two quilts and have a spare. Add some borders if you want them bigger. Baby and mom are going to love them!

    thank you. Keeping the colors apart would eliminate the problem that they do not turn the same side. How about using the darker for the quilt and the bright for the curtain of the crib (only one row at the bottom or so)..............or vis versa?

    I like the colors seperated rather than mixed. very pretty color choices!
