You could do Warm Wishes pattern instead of falling charms. When I have large focus print I do warm wishes pattern...available free on internet.

I have just finished cutting out 5" squares from my stash to do my first falling charms. Can't wait to get started on it.

Good luck to you, Dianna

I read your first post and suggested to cut squares instead of fussy cut. Maybe I thought fussy cut would mean you would cut around them and applique. Sometimes my brain doesn't work just right.
I like the idea of using black with your two fabrics.
I agree with others, not too much purple. Whatever you do it will be beautiful.
Maybe look on utube or is it youtube. Suzanne Mac Neil has a video showing how to make a 5 minute block, can be made to look like a cathedral window quilt.

Beautiful fabrics! If it were me, I would cut the print at random. l love the turquoise in the background. Perhaps if you used a little of the fuchia or the black (or is it navy?) to break up the purple.

I'm not a purple person so I would add more turquoise, bright pink, and black, really mix it up.......why limit yourself to 2 or 3 fabrics is my motto,

Stop it there is no such thing, love purple.

How about adding black and making the flowers into the shadow box style with the other purple as the background?

Hey, you're talking to a Baltimore Ravens fan here! No such thing as too much purple. But maybe try some black if you want. It works for us!

Why not add black?

Mitch's mom 10-30-2013 07:22 PM

I would pull the pink out of the flowers if you want another color. I didn't see too much purple though!
