A friend of mine uses the camera in black and white to judge all her quilt colors before making any blocks and again uses it after making up a block or two to be double sure she will like the mixture. Yes it works. I have not done it.

Pretty blocks. Maybe put the blocks with the dark green in the corners -- they are pretty, but do pop in the body. For sashing, I would also audition a green or other color from the blocks. Depends on the look you want, the blocks are such pretty pastels that you could pull out one of the colors and make a more pastel quilt.

I keep looking at this beautiful color combo, and I think sashing would hold the ziggies but I don't think the black border would be the right color for it. I keep seeing either hot pink or bright purple for the borders. Hope this helps. 8-)
