I was thinking of making a 4 block by 4 block baby girl quilt. Thanks!

It's lovely and would make for a nice baby quilt.
The only change I would make would be not to have those two dark ones side by side, or perhaps even eliminate them. Yes, perhaps more contrast as others have pointed out would be better, as they and similar fabrics could create. Though perhaps you like the subtlety that less contrast gives? I think this could work out quite lovely!
A note to all ... sometimes we have to remember that traditional fabric placements is not necessarily the way to go. Especially if one likes it.
