    The first page of this thread has the cut list.. I can see lots of different colors, pinks blues, browns,reds, greens. You could probably get away with some yellows. Look at "blenders" that way you can find coordinates. Hope this helps!

    Thanks for your help - I'll take the fabric with me to our local quilt shops after Christmas & see what I can find.

    Wow, you have So many options..

    ~The teal and brown fabric would be a nice coordinating fabric..
    ~A teal blender..
    Just my opinion.
    Love teal - hope I can find some; thanks for suggestions.

    Solids or blenders or other prints - suggestions needed!
    blenders or prints that 'read' like they blend or are solid.:)

    That is great fabric! I could easily find co-ordinates for that. Since we are not close enough, here's an easy trick: look on the selvedge of the fabric and you will find colored dots. These are the colors in the fabric. Take those dots with you when you go shopping from your stash or the store and you will have fabrics in no time!

    When I get up against a wall on picking faberics, the quilt shop is my stop to get an opinion.
