    My suggestion is to find a print that you love and pull the colors out of it for the accents and neturals.

    I think it needs a zip somewhere in there. To me it's too bland. Just saying ----

    Since you ask ....you don't have enough contrast. Do you have the red or green view finders you can buy at a quilt shop? Look through those and you will see what some of us are talking about. Remember "color gets all the credit, but value does all the work".

    I think they look nice together. I will be looking forward to seeing your finished block.

    I agree. Maybe not the same "mood".

    If you can place all the fabrics together and walk back about 10 to 15 ' you will see if they will go together. If there is a fabric that does not go, it will stand out.

    Yes, they go together, but they are all the same tone. How about adding a bright or dark or two. Will give any pattern more life.

    Leaders and Enders-This is very neat. If you already use a leader and an ender why not create something as you are already using these scrap fabrics. Check these quilts out! Beautiful and the fabric was not wasted and you created an extra quilt while
