    It depends on the colors used in the quilt itself. White sometimes does it or a bright color that’s not a main color used in the color scheme.

    Yummy – those are my favourite colours (minus the red!) Beautiful hand-dyes, Michelle. The colour I’d use to pop a quilt depends on what colour palette I’ve chosen. I’ll try to find an obscure colour in the print fabric I’ve chosen – always a bright one – and then use that for a zinger; piped edging, or an accent block. I don’t chose that fabric until I have my top together, and then I go looking for a colour that will add that ‘something extra’ to the quilt!

    Those fabrics are stunning! Adding POP to a quilt depends on the other colors being used. You may need black to make the others pop, or you may need a pop of yellow on a blue quilt. I think the pop is all about getting someone to look at your quilt and either want to snuggle with it, or make one like it.

    To add some pop to a quilt it would have to depend on the colors already in the quilt…usually something a little lighter but in the same range cool or warm, like a lime green or orange/yellow, sometimes even a white will pop it…definitely has to complement the other colors though.

    Oh, what lovely fabric! Hmm, well, it really depends on what colors you are using in your quilt. If you are using greens, yellows and blues, the a red would give it a good pop. If you are using oranges, browns, greens, then a vibrant blue or a black would give it a good pop… so really, it just depends 🙂

    If the quilt had colour in it then I would add a grey. This makes all the other colours pop without making the colours fade or look washed out. If it needed colour then I would use a green or blue as it blends with most other colours. However, my favourite colour to use in quilts is purple.

    I’ve been thinking about this, and it really does depend on the quilt and your other colors. I am choosing fabrics for one quilt right now that is mostly blues and teals, but I’m putting in some orange for “pop”. Then I’m designing another quilt for a friend using a lot of darker colored batik fabrics that she collected while traveling in Africa, and I’m trying to decide how to make them pop — maybe black…. Anyway, thank you very much for the giveaway!

    After much thought I conclude it depends on the quilt – sometimes a quilt needs pulling back to pop – Grey or white. Sometimes it needs contrast though

    Well, that is a hard question to answer, because “it depends”. Basically, I think I’d add something contrasting, either 1. something from the opposite side of the color wheel or 2. a warm color to a quilt with predominately cool colors or a cool color to a warm color quilt.
