Default I'm so excited for my new project! Dr. Seuss lap quilt

I just placed and order last night for the specialty fabrics and I can't wait to start it! Here's my basic design (it will be tweaked as I go for seam allowance):

[ATTACH=CONFIG]440403[/ATTACH]
"Chars" is this fabric: https://www.fabric.com/buy/di-495/ce...r-stripe-white

"Titles" is this fabric: https://www.fabric.com/buy/di-494/ce...d-29889bf8fb7b

And "Cat in Hat" is this fabric: https://www.fabric.com/buy/di-490/th...at-panel-multi (one "block" per block on my quilt.

I estimated the sizes of blocks based on what the designer, Robert Kaufman, shows on his site with a measuring tape. http://www.robertkaufman.com/fabrics...ADE-10798-203/

I even am going so far as to say that this is going to be reversible and on the back there will be this panel, https://www.fabric.com/buy/es-412/th...hat-panel-blue and more of that same matching solid blue color (same as on front).

It's all pretty exciting. I almost never allow myself to get specialty fabrics like this. Anyway, what do you guys think?
