I have a house full of family until the 30th. I may not even be able to go through my stash until then.[/quote]
Come when you get ready Tomi! We'll be waiting for you. :)

~The teal and brown fabric would be a nice coordinating fabric..
~A teal blender..
Just my opinion.

Should my coordinates be solids? That is one of the things puzzling me - will it get too 'busy' if the coordinating fabrics have any pattern in them? I rarely use plain solids - not sure what to do with this. And I've never made a large quilt - if I can do this, I'll put it on our bed. Thanks for your suggestions already - more welcome!

a small pattern probably wouldnt detract from that gorgeous focus and a tone on tone pattern wouldnt either I would look for COLORS that go first, patterned or not and from there you can see how you like other patterns with it
