I am trying to make a blooming 9 patch. I get that you need large busy prints and that each fabric should share some common colors with the piece they are next to. But other than that I am at a loss.

Here is what I have tentatively picked out. The pattern calls for 8 and I only have 7. So I need to find one more. I have pinks at both ends but not in the middle. Is that a problem? Should I try to move them all together? Are the 3 blue/green ones in the middle too close to the same? I forgot that there was suppose to be a change in value. Am I totally off? Oh and I have a blue and black that would match the last one on the right. But it has black. The two before it have brown. yea? nay?

All help is greatly appreciated. If you think I am totally off base let me know! I appreciate constructive criticism. Positive comments are always nice but they don't really help to learn and improve :)

The first 7 one more needs to be added. The one on the right for the center.

After looking at the picture maybe I need to flip the middle 3. I think the colors still match ok. Is this better?
