    I am not sure that green works, I would pick a more subdued green. Also I agree that the top fabric looks too peachy. I do like your fabrics though.

    The top one seems out of place. The print is too small and controlled for the other fabrics which are more free flowing.

    I have to agree with the others about the top fabric. Look forward to seeing the finished project. Thanks for the link. BrendaK

    I like all of them, including the top one! I think it's nice having a geometric pattern with all of the tossed prints. And I like how they all have different textures and colorways that either go directly together or carry a color from one end to another. It's a nice combination. And I like the mix of prints from modern and traditional.

    I do agree with someone that you'll want to cut the top fabric carefully because if the print is too crooked, it will look funny...unless that crookedness is a design element you can incorporate into your quilt.

    I love all the fabrics. However if I were doing a quilt, I would lose the green and opt for one solid color or a tone on tone to break up all the different prints. Possibly a lighter green or yellow. Please post when you are finished.

    I really like your sweet modern prints and I think they would be really cute in the DP9 as shown in your link. I think your pattern does not have sashing as sashing would break up the DP9 look. I do like the top fabric and think it gives balance to the group.

    This was my first reaction too, the fabric just jumped out at me.
