I really like grannieannie's idea of a white background small print with the peach and greens in it to replace the plain white.
|
I agree, the white is no stark.
|
Although I do love what you've done here, the white does seem a bit 'harsh' against the floral. Perhaps something in a softer tone - cream or buttery yellow? Love your fabric choices, though
|
lokks very nice to me !!
|
I like the white, but for me the greens are shouting at each other- might be my screen. I love the blocks- maybe use the floral for the outside border?
|
The white is too bright. I would use a darker shade of the pink and green or a much lighter shade, or use the floral instead of the white and change your background color to another solid with more contrast.
|
Okay, my 2 cents. I would use that beautiful floral fabric in the squares where you have the white. Then use the white and the floral for the sashing. If you had some of the peach for other sashing would work also. Or use the white in the middle 4 block square and then add the white in the sashing.

Lots of good advice given. Love the colors in the print and also love the blocks but I think the blocks are too bold for the print, maybe blocks in softer colors and the darker pink or green as an accent would work better with the soft print fabric.
