Choosing Colors

I wasn't going to say anything here because it takes forever but . . I'm writing a book. If all goes well, it will be published in Fall, 2007. I can design the quilts and I can write the patterns but I cannot choose the colors! My favorites colors are lime, purple and orange but my editor wants a "wide range" of colors. Ughhh! I think she wants some tans and more muted colors. So, I'm struggling with my color choices. The next quilt in line to be done has three fabrics. Here are my choices. Are they awful?? Surely someone will like these colors??? Are they too boring? If you were browsing through a quilt book and came across a quilt made with these fabrics, would you say "yuck"? Be honest! For me to stay on track, I have to make two quilt tops a month. Yesterday (9/16) I finished the top that should have been finished on September 1. That means the one that should have been finished 9/15 has not been started. Not good! But, I'm not worried (although I probably should be!) because some of the tops are much easier than others and we're going to GA for a week for Fall Break, to Louisiana for almost two weeks at Christmas and then back to Louisiana for a week at Spring Break so that's four weeks of sewing time with little or no cooking, housekeeping, yard work, etc. If I could tear myself away from the computer, that would help a whole lot too! Back to sewing on a boring quilt! :) Judy L.
