Each one of the dragons are 21" X 11" so I thought one in the center would look nice.

Love that dragon fabric!! I like the idea of fussy cutting the dragon, though I think it's a shame to cut right into that pretty fabric. :) :) Good luck!! Can't wait to see how it comes out!

i would also plaster the dragon to either the black or the red. it will stand out more. all that fussy cutting and applique work will deserve all the attention it can get. :-)

I like the dark much better than the white but I think it is still a little too busy. A black on black would really pop the dragon more.

Have you considered getting a full width fabric and doing ALL applique? That would be smashing. Then you could do all those flames that were talked about in cute's PDA.

I agree with MadQuilter, the black is better but too busy.
