More opinions needed on the basket quilt
#1
I've got the flowers dealt with and decided on but now I'm stuck on the sashing. This is the color I had picked out from the start that I put in EQ. It looked good on the print out, but now that I have some of it sewn together I think it's way too loud. I feel like it overpowers the baskets and that maybe I should have gone with a pale yellow.
Not all of this is sewn together, and what part of this is sewn is all that I have sewn so seam ripping wouldn't be too terrible. I'd be wasting a lot of fabric though because all my sashing is cut out.
So what's everyone's opinion on this issue? DH, who is not really great with colors, thinks the orange is fine and it frames the blocks. He thinks yellow would blend too much but said maybe that's what I wanted. Bless his heart for trying to say the right thing. :)
