Today, I've got a new baby quilt in the works. The Mother-to-be likes purple and the nursery will have a safari theme. My goal is to make a soft, happy quilt that will grow with the new baby.
I really like this print from Central Park by Kate Spain. I'm using the third one from the left. Purple? Check! Animals? Check! Fun, fresh color palette? Check!
I chose my colors based on the print. I'm using mostly purples and yellow with a just hint of taupe and blue for balance. There is a variety of values within each color and I stayed away from anything too light since the animal print is on a white background. Add in a mix of scale and shapes and we're looking good. Aren't they pretty together?
Purples
Taupes
Blues
Yellows
The baby shower is coming up fast so I've got to run and cut. Not at the same time silly!

ReplyDeleteGreat fabric choices. I've developed a whole story about why the central park bricks are in the purple and taupe, but not the yellow. Buy me a drink and I might tell you.
ReplyDeleteGreat fabric choices. I have a very special mom-to-be friend who is decorating with a purple (college color) safari theme. I will have to use my central park scraps for something special for her. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteLove your choices!!! Can't wait to see more!
