the start of Thinking Outside the Block... it's not quite the effect I was going for...

I think it looks awesome. It may be one of those projects that you don't get the full effect of until you've got more. I like the red in it.
I'm glad you posted it in progress...I've been wondering how that layout went together. Now I know :D I'd like to try it as a baby quilt for my niece's baby.

Hmm--the flaming maples was what I was going for, BUT I was also using what I have available--so forcing the issue. I just didn't want to buy more fabric.
I agree on too much green too--but I have a lot of green and was trying to use some up. Blue is the other one in great supply--but that didn't work at all--trust me, I tried. :wink:
Dang--I should have gone green/blue and called it Ocean Waves! :lol:

Karla, I love this and may have to make this pattern...
But, since you asked my opinion...I think you need the center to be a small leaf print with all the greens, oranges, beiges, and reds in it.
I don't see orange, and I don't think of fall with beige.
If you like applique, this would be a good one to "finish" with falling applique leaves in solids of each of the colors. IMHO
