    yet if I will be using it. Went to 5 different stores (HL, Joann's & 3 LQS)
    looking for a solid or tonal green that would match (or come close).

    However I DID find in my stash I had a green with blue paisley print
    that I think looks so-so with the fabrics, the hubs said no though

    I have been looking at the D9P pattern, every pattern layout that I
    have seen has 9 different fabrics hence the reason I am trying to
    come up with so many choices.
    Here's a D9P that I did with 3 different reds and a contrasting silver center block: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...t-t228733.html I think your fabrics would work really well this way too. It's a different layout that the one StiffChick posted above, but similar effect...

    Very pretty fabrics. The paisley goes well in color. If you have enough you might use it as a border to your quilt. Or as your backing. Just a suggestion.
