I think you have a great mix and the first group would work best. There's too much green in the fabric switched out in pic 2 and it may show up more than you'd like when pieced. Please post pics of the finished quilt!

Thank you, I appreciate all of your opinions. I have definitely removed the fabric on the left in the second pic and put the original fabric back in its place. The one fabric that I was having a hard time with was the light lavender flowers which is the 5th from the left. Not sure if it was looking too pink. any thoughts on that one????

I like the fabric 5th from the left, but I can see what you might be concerned about. On my screen it appears to have a more pinky cast and the two on either side are more bluish. I still think it will blend, but I'm no expert.

Just my thought, I like fabrics in #1 and the only thing I would change is switch placement with 4 & 5 counting from the right...

I just finished making a heart bargello wall hanging for Valentine Day for my Finance' and he will get it while we are in Hawaii....

TY good advice. Can you post a pic of your bargello wall hanging? Would love to see it. Lucky you going to Hawaii. We went in December. Such an awesome place for a vacation.

Your colors are wonderful! I personally like the first grouping better than the second, but both would be very nice.

I love the colors you have chosen. I look forward to seeing your finished quilt.

I think that your fabrics are lovely. Regarding the darkest fabric to the right of the lightest fabric in your picture, could it work if you move the darker fabrics to the extreme right side? That is you have light to dark beginning from the centre outwards on both sides? Also, I noticed that you have 12 fabrics, I think that you probably need an odd number to make this pattern work? Please ask for more information. I have looked up Bargello patterns before and I remember reading somewhere that an odd number of fabrics is preferable as an even number will result in 2 of the same fabrics meeting in the middle. Please, other QB members correct me if I am wrong. Best of luck with the selection and I am looking forward to seeing your finished product! :-D

I love your fabric. I think if you move #9 from the left in group 1 to the far right then you will have the purple and teal combination. I can hardly wait to see your WIP.
