Thank you all for your encouraging rkearms… My approach to the color in this quiltwas to use on of the pink roses as my basis. I then went through the fabrics Ihad – did they have one of the shades of pink in the roses? I kept only theones that did. In this case that was not many fabrics: there was one biggerpiece with rosebuds, and 2 smaller pieces of floral with pink, and some 2 darkerpink plains. To this I added a white tone on tone print – I did not choose plainwhite as I thought in large areas this would be just two plain and I knew thatthere would be large areas due to the lack of pink.The width of the stripes and strips was determined again by the fabricavailable: to make this symmetrical I need 8 (for example) pieces that are Xlong – i then calculated how wide to cut them and hoped like mad i had not madea calculation error…With my left overs I could perhaps make a potholder… The only reason I did notrelent and go to a fabric shop is the distance I would have to travel….
