Your colors are very pretty and all that you need is some contrast and it will be great. :-D

It reminds me of a cottage shabby chic, which by the way I like. I could picture it draped casually on the back of a white whicker chair on a porch. Cute.

I was thinking of making a 4 block by 4 block baby girl quilt. Thanks!

The busyness is okay, but you need more contrast. See how the darker blue & pink stand out? you need two like that opposite each other & it will be fine. Personally, I think all these look great together! Be sure & post another pic later when you get it altogether!... |

I've laid out another possibility of the floral fabrics, both with the beigy coloured background, and also with a white background.
I've also laid out a totally different type of fabrics, in several different arrangements. I may be totally off the wall with these ones.....it certainly gives a different effect, but might be more suitable for a baby quilt. Or.....I may need to go out and buy some fabric! Please give me feedback. Thanks! #1 Another arrangement of florals with beige background [ATTACH=CONFIG]201500[/ATTACH] #3 one arrangemnt of other fabrics [ATTACH=CONFIG]201501[/ATTACH] #2 Another arrangement of florals with white background [ATTACH=CONFIG]201504[/ATTACH] #4 another arrangement [ATTACH=CONFIG]201505[/ATTACH] #5 Another arrangement [ATTACH=CONFIG]201506[/ATTACH] |

I love it and the way they all come together. Keep going!

I like to stagger the lites and darks so they compliment each other. The lights are getting lost in each other.
