You have done an amazing job. I would put a light purple square in the middle instead of the white. The center square is fighting for attention :lol: :XD:

the white actually is paper and not fabric. I have not found the right fabric for there yet. have three different ones that I am looking at right now. It just depends on what I end up doing with the greens.

Your block is great as it is! The background helps to accentuate the lady in the center. If you did a bright green background, it would compete with the lady. JMHO~

Quandaries such as this would have me in a Photoshop type program, or multiple photo copies/color prints, to assemble more blocks, to see what the resulting pattern would be.
Isn't this what makes designing so much fun? After deciding on a block, or block set, comes sashing or not.

Personally, the colors, as they are, are striking. It may be fun to make a stack & whack out of the focus fabric for the center. I too will be looking for a finale on this.

I am with you on that!! the dark purple next to angels seem to close her in. not sure about border if you change the purples.. I find myself being too matchy matchy at times so if the center square is the bright green I think the border should be too. I am leaning towards the lighter green for center frame. I think I would go with the angel/girl for the centblock and make her the focus- if you just put anothr color into the block you will probably loose the girl all together!! Jus my opinion though. I am new at this and havent done too much!!
Cant wait to see it done!! Your work is great and the colors are so vibrant and go together very well-you have a great eye for color!!!
