The first picture below is from the cover of Judy Neimeyer's Bali Wedding Star pattern. The second picture shows the fabric groupings I've come up with (so far) for the rings. Please give me your honest opinions about the fabrics -- does anything 'jump' out as being too bright, too dull, out of place, etc. This is an expensive and time consuming project and I'll appreciate any help I can get!!! Sorry about the second one being a little bit dark, but with the flash the colors were all washed out. Thanks.

I think your selection is beautiful.

The fabrics/colors look great. I find that red stands out from
all the other colors, so use it with care.

I like your colours. It will be more colourful then your example but I think it will work out well.

I agree that you should use red with care, but choice of fabric is fabulous

I think they blend perfectly, and as for the red "jumping out" I don't think it is to over powerful. and red means love and aren't weddings about love?? can't wait to see the finished quilt! but keep us updated along the way please!

I looked really closely and like to give very honest constructive criticism. However, I can't find any fabric choices to criticize. Very nice grouping of fabrics. I would not hesitate to make suggestions but I really like the fabrics. Good luck with the project. Piecing curves frightens me. LOL
