Welcome, Works4Me!!
Perhaps the Leader of the group, PaintMeJudy will come on back and advise you.
However, I will say I absolutely love the first group for the punch it gives .... the colours and fabric designs are incredible together. Though I would wonder about moving F from the 2nd group up and switch it in for A or B as they look very close together.
The 2nd grouping is lovely too, just more subdued. I'm like you and love bolds, so that's why the 1st would be my choice!
.... but as mentioned above, let PaintMeJudy give you your advice re the project ... mine is just for the love of the fabrics!
