How about if you alternate the green and pink as it goes round in each block?

(since, you know, you already have the base quilt done.:mrgreen:)

And, of course, the OP can use 20 plus pink and green fabrics to give it a bit more interest.

I like yellow but that is a lot of yellow.

And you have 5 weeks to get it finished? Yikes!

I would go simple: snowball 9patch.
Here's the pattern:

And here is a coloring book page so you can try out different colorations.

I would probably make yellow "balls" with green corners and 5 green squares in the 9patch with pink background. Hmmmm... that might look like flowers with green leaves.

Have fun with it. But hurry!

I love PP and love this pattern, have already placed it on my "to do" list.

For your quilt, won't you need a few additional colors?

.........and will there be enough contrast with the yellow as a background?

I do think that your choice of pattern is on the right path...

good luck.

I like Lea's setting, the one that comes up first. When I first read the color requirements I could not picture it at all, but seeing the setting colored, it's lovely

I checked out the pattern. I've got it saved! Thanks.
