Coach,
I love your fabrics, I'm a sucker for florals.
When you're making a quilt, in order for it to successful its not good to try to match everything; it can make for a boring quilt. Also you might try another tone on tone fabric, the eye needs a place to rest every so often.

Look on the selvage and find the manufacturer and the print name. Enter that in google. Perhaps you will find a coordinating fabric form the same collection or manufacturer. On my monitor your green looks very bright. They all seem to be the same hue or intensity or whatever is the correct term. I think you need a bit more contrast. The best way is to google a fabric search. Good luck

Just a thought but if she does everything in blues the lovely colors you have choses will blend with her things and yet stand out because they are different. I hope you find what you are looking for. Looking forward to seeing your finished product.

Do you mean the one with the green leaves? Tell me how much you need and I'll send it for postage. I'm happy I can help. I just hope I have enough!
