    I agree, it is a beautiful pattern but what about a little bit more contrast?

    I love that block....but....it does need more contrast. Try a few darker pieces.

    I think all the colors & the busy fabrics look good, especially because you have framed it with white. And that's the truth as I see it.

    Nice. I think like someone else said, if you add some solids to make your prints stand out, will look great.

    I love it just as it is!! Just lovely!! When you set your squares out for your quilt, you might reverse/alternate the squares so that the blue in the first square is on the left, next square it is on the right, etc. It is going to make a beautiful baby quilt. Great job!!

    I reconize some of these fabrics from my statch. In the last two pics you have only 7 fabrics not 8. For a baby quilt I would use four fabrics, pink, blue yellow, green and repeat each one opposite themselves. That way it's not too busy
