Hi, just poking my nose in here to see what you all are doing. Everything looks fabulous!!
As per Tartan's question about the center fabrics, I have a good way to see value only. Squint! Look at the above picture and squint til all you can see is the dark/light value, not color so much. Then you will see that all of the center fabrics are lights. I'd use all of them as lights. Some diversity is good and makes an interesting quilt, just as long as the value lines are not crossed.
I learned to squint to discern dark/light values from a wonderful art teacher I had in high school and it's served me all my life.
