I also wondered what size 9 patch you will be making? Numbers 2 and 16 being large scale prints may not work well once pieced into the blocks with the smaller scale prints. Your colors are lovely.
I am not sure about 10. It does seem to stick out as not blending with the other colors. I read in a quilt magazine that every quilt needs a "crazy aunt" fabric (one that sticks out in a crowd) to add interest. Don't rule it out just yet.
Good luck and keep us posted.
