    I would have an off-white/Ivory rather than white and another softer or muted shade of one of your other colours. The black and white dominate.

    I really like it! The solid black and white make for a very modern looking quilt. If you wanted to soften it up, I would go with a light pearl grey instead of the white and a deeper dark grey for the black. It will be beautiful either way.

    I am a fan of batiks. I love the format you are using. They all fit. Do it! Make that quilt!

    They look very well, especially those gorgeous batiks. Should make a good looking quilt.

    I agree with Geri B.0 I think the white and black compete with the batiks. If it were mine, I would reduce the white.
