MJ--the center is a soft orange and is supposed to be in a BIG contrast with the rest of the block. I love that fabric--it's so beautiful--kind of a peachy yellow--not beige.
It's too late to change the middle square since I have 30 more already made to the green strip....
So, either I call it "It's a Jungle Out There!" or maybe "Have You Tried the New Camo From Wal-Mart?" or I made a change... it's very hard to get FALL out of my head since each of those fabrics--well minus two--holler FALL to me... I'll play with fabric tomorrow and see what I can come up with.
Stay tuned...
PS.. Chele--trust me--rippping some out is not a priority!! :lol: I will make something from the blocks that are together...a table runner. But I don't want to complete more as planned--I'm just not a jungle kind of girl.

Oh! The rest of the blocks are only to the gold strip--so I can take the green one out. I'll be up early for chores--so will tackle this afterward.
You know, each one of these fabrics individually makes me drool, but together it's more of a gag. I sure hope one of my kids needs a table runner--I'll need to get this out of the house. :lol: :lol:

Nothing wrong with any of the fabrics in my view, but look at it with a distancing tool.....
1. through the wrong end of a pair of binoculars
2. with your back to it looking in a mirror over your shoulder
3. in a photo taken from a distance
4. reflecting in a darkened undraped window at night
Does that make you change your mind/ have a different perspective on it?
