I'm not sure they actually do have enough contrast-- but I hope you like the block anyway. (Choosing fabrics that look nice without being boring is hard for me...I usually err on the side of too many prints and not enough solids...)
Givio,

You and I have that in common for sure! I love blending fabrics with patterns together! And you made wonderful choices. I love what you have done here....the lace is a perfect accent for this block. I have made several blocks to use with these blocks. If you would see them you would know why I love the one you made......thank you!
