Bed quilt for bedroom what color for draperies?

I'm in the process of making a beautiful quilt for my bed.

It's blue and green, with a few accents of red, yellow... etc.

How do I go about picking window draperies? My bedroom is tan, tan and more tan, with white molding.
I'm asking this, because the colors in the quilt are fairly unique.

Is it okay if the colors don't match exactly, and look a little off?

Im seeing a lovely ivory battenburg lace style window panels, or if you just really want the quilt to be the star of the bedroom, just match the window panels close to the wall color so it will blend. If you go with that option, you can use unique accents, maybe with a french country style. I hope this helps, and I just know your quilt will be beautiful. Post us a pic if you can when its done!

Well, I guess picking up a close color to the one in the quilt would be okay but you would have to be careful with the tones in the bedroom and the lighting that it would not be as noticeable. Im not sure what tone the blue and green is, but those would probably be the easiest to match up. Good Luck!
