I bought the Crazy Quilt templates when they were the DD a few weeks back, and I need some advise as to which fabrics to use.

I've got a new niece or nephew arriving in August and I wanted to do a baby quilt. Since I don't know the gender yet, I was going to start off making one for my first niece (who is 15 months old) using the Fairy Frost: It's A Girl Thing, and then depending on what the gender is of #2, do the same quilt in either the pink or blue again.

I hate to buy a charm pack of this for the centers seeing as though I'll only need 12 of them. I'm going to do one that is 3 x 4 of 8" blocks with 1" sashing in between. I was going to use the jelly roll for the strips (I have NO scraps to use), but was thinking maybe I just pick a solid from the collection and use that as the centers as well as the sashing.

Any suggestions as to which color I should do the centers, sashing, and binding in? I was thinking maybe the Fairy Frost - Haze, and then use the Fairy Frost - Peony for the border (going to be a 2" border.

Any thoughts?
