If you mean the white is too bright you could tea dye the block to tone it down.

I really like Arlene's solution, IMHO the circles look contrived. Another possibility either with the top pic or Arlene's solution would be to use a little smaller circle as the "head" of a flower appliqué in the white squares. Love your color choices and the white, maybe a little less of it, really makes them pop.

I like the addition. White is a "take over" color. I have a hard time working with it and rarely do.

I agree with the 'take it apart' person - perhaps replace the white with a tone on tone green similar to one of the lighter greens in the log cabin blocks.

The fabrics in the log cabin blocks look nice together.

I also like Arleners idea. It is very pretty, but not with the circles. Thanks for sharing.

I like it best without the circles.

Question you are saying too much white.
I would say minus the circles also.
But if you are feeling the white is in your face
Tea stain it.

personally I like the white

Circles are fun. Move them around to make asymmetrical arrangement . Overlap some on the cabin blocks. Make small groups or lines of circles. Cut a few in half! Make some smaller sizes. I don't have the ability to make a picture but I encourage you to experiment.
