Need Help with a Pattern Selection
#1
I am getting a new DIL this year and would like to surprise the newlyweds with a quilt. Her favorite color is green and lots of it, but not a lime-color green. I was thinking of something with several shades of green with some purple worked in. Any suggestions for a pattern would be appreciated.

Here are the colors I'm using in my wedding ring quilt for my future DIL. She loves greens and these colors lean toward the blue side of green (teal?)

I'm have a bargello phase. Not that I make them, but I envision them. Think several shades of greens and purples (although in my head it's pink). Look at Eddie's PDA. He is doing a great bargello in blue and green. It looked pretty easy. Of course, Eddie makes everything look easy.

How about just a simple quilt made up of a bunch of half square triangles in different greens (as one half of the HST) and white or ecru as he other half? You could border it or not. Some I have seen are really beautiful just in the simplicity of the pattern.
