I'm horrible at matching colors, I could use a little help for my quilt please!

I like the yellow and the first funky striped fabric.

The last one looks best.

I like the yellow too!

That Yellow would work nicely.

Ok, Sounds like yellow is a winner... How about the second puppie print witch one would look good with it?

 

[openheartnp]

Hard to say, maybe the original green and the yellow would work with the second puppy print. The SHADES of the colors should match, though. Like, if you choose a green it should match or be a little darker or lighter than the green in the print. I agree with not using a solid, but a tiny print that looks almost solid. Before you decide, make sure you view the print in the purest light you have-preferably outside during the day, or under white flourescent lighting. AFTER THAT, view it with indoor lighting just to be sure.

I love mixing prints
Good luck and happy quilting! Sounds like it will be a fabulous project!

what should i do about the corners i like the way mitering looks but i'm not that good at it how about a corner block would that look better than just over laping?


If i did it the first way maybe i could use the first patterned fabric in the corners. I realy like it but it might be too over powing as a border peace but this way might be better. I only have enough of the second puppy print to make about 8 square ware as i have twenty ( but i don't have to use all of them) of the other but i would realy like to get a couple more puppie prents i hope i can get into a big town soon to find some. Do you think the second puppie print is too girly it is for a boy i'm excited about makeing someting for a boy as i have all girls.

I often use the squares in the corners. Either way is fine, but go with your gut. Play with it some in good light. I sometimes make unusual choices and it rarely turns out badly. Quilting is art and art is an expression of YOU.

If it was for me i wouldn't worrie i would just put anyting i liked to gether but since it's for someone else i want it to be pleasing to the eye and not make you go ouch when you look at it lol

here is the other print with some green i have and with the first stips

 

[verthandi]

How about the bright puppy print with yellow side and top pieces and one of the greens for your keystone corner pieces?
