I think the turquoise would be too blendy. Purple and teal really are amazing colors together, I think it would be beautiful if you stuck with the batik.

Thank you for the imput. I'm beginning to think that it is the circles that I don't like! I'm going to make up an actual square and see if that changes my mind!

My soon to be DIL knows about the quilt and she sews also, maybe I should ask her which she prefers...............?

I have another batik somewhere in the basement in a box, going to dig it out.

I'm not crazy about the circles either, while I adore the fabric, the circles will probably be too much for the wedding ring, as they're already circles! Definitely don't go blendy - contrast is what appeals to our eyes... which is probably why you don't like the circles... too many curves, no contrast!

I agree with Ladygen's comment about Circles with circles!
Although I do like it better than that first solid....
The colors on the second make everything POP in your other materials...

I love the fabrics.

Very pretty fabrics. Can't wait to see the finished product. Maybe you can show us "progress" pics as you get started on it?

I love your color palette make sure you show the quilt when finished, it will be beautiful.

Very pretty fabrics. Don't forget to post a picture of the quilt.

Here are some of the rings and the new background I found. It is hard to see in the picture but the colors are right on. I like it cause it isn't traditional, just like the wedding couple.

I REALLY like the latest background fabric you have picked!!!!! It is swirly, but not circles and I think it will be absolutely gorgeous. Your wedding ring fabrics look great against it.
