I agree. This is the solution.

I think your blocks are lovely. Here are a couple options for arrangements:

Jennifer23, I love the second option! What a difference it makes!

I do think the colors and fabrics say "Christmas" rather than "baby".

I think the fabrics/colors say "fall/autumn" - I'm seeing rust, gold, and sort of a yellowed green. At least on my monitor.

I agree with the majority of the comments. Rearranging the blocks will make a big difference. I love the 2nd and 3rd pictures of being rearranged.

Your choice of borders will make or break the blocks. I think maybe a really dark floral border would make them pop!

Rotate the blocks until you find something you like. I agree that this is not a pretty lay out at all.

I don't see anything wrong with it. Probably needs borders but I think it's lovely.
