I'm planning to make a quilt to go on the bed in our master bedroom. All the patterns I am drawn to for our bedding have a lot of white fabric in them. I'm so nervous about making a quilt with a lot of white though as I'm afraid it will get dingy fast with being slept under every night and three kids crawling all over it during the day. With all the time and money I will have to put into it, I don't want something that is going to look horrible in a couple years. I also don't want something that makes me cringe every time I see the kids or dh on top of it!

What to do? What to do? I'm almost thinking of just nixing the idea all together as nothing else catches my eye for our bed! Don't get me wrong...there are tons of quilt patterns without white that I love, just not for our bed!

Or am I just over thinking this and the white fabric doesn't get icky looking very quickly?
