Colourful Options

Grape colourway with AMH

Chocolate colourway with AMH

Sienna colourway with AMH

I have been having a play with some coloured solids for my AMH Irish Chain Quilt. while I procrastinate on how to quilt the SWAK envelope quilt.  Remember I said I thought I wanted it bright and jewel toned.  After taking a pile of my fabrics to Spotlight and laying them with some of their colours, I decided that the blues or greens I had envisioned  for the chains weren't right.  However the grape, chocolate and sienna colourways I quite liked.  I bought a fat quarter of each, came home and had a little play.

What do you think of these choices? - Do you have a preference - I am hoping to avoid using white or black.?

    I was impressed by all three but my favourite was the first one, the grape. Have fun deciding.

    oooo all that lovely colour! I have to say that i think the grape (first one) works best. Provides the most contrast against the other colours in my view ;) good luck with the decision!

    I looked carefully at all the beautiful fabrics in each photo... got to your writing and realised that I had not noticed the different backgrounds at all LOL, so I am guessing I am no help :)

    Love your fabric pull and I have to go with #2, I really like the chocolate. In my opinion, the brown accentuate the richness of the other colors. :-))
