Beautiful Fall collection. I like the suggestions of the rich brown or burnt orange. If you're concerned about one color being overpowering, how about picking several different colors. You could surround each block with a complementary Fall color (like having its own mini-border), then sew them directly together like that or add a traditional sashing between the bordered blocks. If you bordered the blocks and cut them wonky, they might resemble the movement of falling leaves . . . .
