Your fabric is just fine. For me - no Christmas, Halloween, Easter, Thanksgiving, or any other theme'y thing. I just don't go there.

Agree with those who nix the checkered fabric and think the other three will be great together.

I don't see the red check fabric coming into play but am anxious to see what your finished work produces. Rather exciting actually.

The checked one , to me, doesn't seem to work with the others. But it's your project.

I love 1&4. I like 2 a lot, but not with the others. And I could probably do something with 1,2 and 4 together, so I see where you're coming from.

i often have to sell my friends on the fabric choices I put together, so I feel your pain.

Now everyone knows that it could be great with the right mix of fabric with the right pattern and mix of blocks. It is just that the planning and designs are hard to imagine from these fabrics. Small amounts of one, larger of another, and it could work something magical. I remember seeing quilts on the front cover of quilter's newsletter magazine that I thought were not my style but inspired designs.

Oh No!! LOL!!! What have I got myself into!?!
Original game plan was 2 Warm Wishes table runners. I did check out the OBW and agree these fabrics would work well. Thanks all for the feedback!!!
