    Your stash looks like mine. All country colors. I love my hunter greens, burgundy, navy blue and creams.

    OK, here's yet ANOTHER maroon. I do have a 'dusty rose' in my stash that was given to me, but I'm SO not a pink gal and couldn't bring myself to take a picture of it.

    I think everything I own (pretty much) is country. It's like my whole stash matches. lol This is why I think I've got a pathetic stash, and have been TRYING to broaden my horizons of my colors.

    Figured I'd post quick so both pics are right next to one another. The green in the middle just wasn't sitting right with me, so I moved the same fabrics around. I think it really improves the flow. I also added a light border fabric.

    So am I nuts or what? Could be worse. I could be BUYING fabric and doing this. ha ha

    I need to just let it lay now for a day and see how it sits with me.

    Ok ... new pic to work with :)

    Can we see a larger image of the fabric in 3rd from left? My concern is that it seems to be too large of a print with too much difference between value within the fabric. The result will be one 1" square will be dark and another will be light - but in the same "position" in the bargello.
