I'm seeing the geometric with the pink and purple lines (8th from the right) as reading darker than the one to the left of it. I'd move it left one place. Your black and white sort of shows that too. I haven't done a bargello, but I've bought fabric for one and it's on my list. I've read about them and from what I understand the value means more than the color as far as position.

I would swap fabrics #2 (light leafy pink print) and #3 (more "solid" pink) from the right. Fabric #2 reads darker than fabric #3 (when viewed in gray scale) and seems to flow better if you reverse them. Just my opinion....I do love all your fabric choices. This is going to be a beautiful quilt!

Maniac - this will be so beautiful.. I do agree that what Jan said. Once you get it organized and cut out - it will go together quickly. When I made mine this past summer, I put the strips together in sections- I think 4 at a time, and then put the groups together. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Have fun, and I hope your good friend will be ok.
