You don't think those fabrics go together? She said she liked greens and browns. That fabric that looks gray in the picture is really green and there is some orange in the background although it doesn't look like it.

Very pretty! Interesting print combinations. I would never have thought of putting those together.

I didn't mean it didn't look good. I just wouldn't have put such busy prints together. but that is just me. I think when others do things I wouldn't think to do I learn from it. I think you have great contrast and nothing blends so that makes it work fine. I like to see others way of mixing and matching. It is interesting to see how other quilters think about color and combining them.

You did an excellent job! It wasn't my colors but I am trying to expand my color thinking anyway. Good experience for me to see how you think. That is one of the things I get out of this swap!!

This is the block I mailed to my partner, BonniFeltz. Her color choices were blue and more blue. It looks as if we are posting pictures of blocks we sent, so that is what I have done.

Bonnie, it went in the mail on Friday. Hope it will work for you, and that you like it

Bonnie is clapping her hands with glee. I...LOVE...IT! That is so pretty!!!

I am working on yours. :) It's still a secret at this point though since I don't have the fabrics totally picked out. Hey, at least I picked out which block. THAT helps. LOL. It should still be done on time though. :)

That's ok. I just know that when I post a picture the colors don't always look as they are.

I love Batik's and I don't think any batik doesn't look good with another. No matter what the color. And I like The blues in Bonni's block. I just think they are all so pretty. Makes me want to make quilts in all the different colors. I'm trying... lol
