I think you'd get more interesting blocks if you go with something that has more colors in it. Also from OBW or StacknWhacks I've seen here seem more interesting if there is not a lot of open one color background. IMO

Here is the material I used for a SnW and a pic of the finished quilt top. I found the larger the print with the highest contrast really worked well.

i'm wondering if some of us are talking about one block wonders & the others about stack & whack?
Farm Quilter, I just love that. I adore my book, but have not done one, yet. Did you use the white stamens in the center of the pink flower anywhere? I looked, but did not see one. Wonderful choice of detail! Amazing WHAM! |

I envision using the largest print in a medalion and lots of borders with the other fabrics. I just MAY do a trim containing a bit of stack n whack, after all, that's what started this!
