Can't add any more about fabric selection, but maybe you could use the gridded fabric with one or two of the others for the backing?

I personally liked the small gridded fabric because it had a different scale, but I agree most of what you started with are lights so you still need more darks. Unless you scattered in the new fabrics in a larger chunks to make the impact you need and did just smaller bits of the lights. Like maybe a snowball block? For me the larger leaf print is too much the same as the one with the lines in it. If it were me I'd pick only one of those and pull out the other. But these fabrics should make a lovely fall quilt. I know what it's like to want to use from your stash and not have to buy much new. Been there! Good luck with your project.

I would go with the rusty brown, green and a golden yellow, I agree with Nammie to 7 it needs more of a color combination. Pretty fabric.
|
I think your choice is PERFECT and exactly what I woulld have suggested. Please show us th finished quilt! HAVE FUN!!!!!
|
When you have made your decision on the pattern be sure to let us know. Look forward to seeing the finished quilt. I love the colors. BrendaK

Your rust, gold and green that read as solid, look like they could work. Otherwise, I might look for a dark brown or more gold.

I wonder if you could try to find a match for the orangy-red in the leaves. Or maybe just find a rich rusty brown to pull it together.

I think blended rust would work good with these other greens!
