    Default Do these fabrics go together?

    I am doing the block of the month on Craftsy. Do these fabrics look good together? Please be honest, they weren't expensive and I can put them in my stash if they don't. Also do you have other suggestions of what other fabrics and prints would look good

    I think so. I have the green floral and the orangish dots in a quilt together right now.

    I'm not real crazy about the yellow, which is odd because I normally love yellow. But in limited amounts it will add sparkle. I love the other four together though.

    Lovely fabrics. Not sure about the brown.

    The fabrics go together, but both me and my Mom think they may be too bland. But, it may be due to the camera - the colors don't always come out the same when you post them.

    A bit hard to tell on my monitor. I think you might preview the grouping with a bit of purple thrown in? Your prints are lovely.

    I think they go together, if I was to add, I would add a blue like the blue in flowered print.

    I like the peaches and the brown but not the yellow or the light green. Plus, to me, the light green is a different "genre"? How do I explain it. It looks like a different mood. That make sense?

    Not knowing the BOM you are doing I feel it makes it a little difficult. They do appear to be bland if it was me I would introduce the colour of the aqua/green of the dot (3rd top row) or maybe a brighter mauve. I am not expert its just what I would do.
