    [ATTACH=CONFIG]558121[/ATTACH][QUOTE[ATTACH=CONFIG]558120[/ATTACH]=kwiltkrazy;7651313]what do you think?[/QUOTE] Ok, I was able to save your pix and reduce the sizes. Maybe Judy can see them better this way. As for me, I'd eliminate both big prints and add the green with bats to the mix. I'd choose yellow, orange, green bats, spiderwebs, and the light orange print with purple witches. Not sure what order. I'll post your pictures here for you. If you like my choices maybe Judy can suggest which should be A-B-C-D-E.

    lstew love the Christmas material.

    Judy which do you like better, the green bats or the orange grave scene, the scale is much smaller than the purple cats.

    Default what do you think

    thanks for all your help Jan, trying to find an alternative to the cat and frog material, the scale is way too big. The orange graveyard material has a much smaller scale, the characters range from 1 1/2" to 2. I'm afraid that that will still be too big.Here are two more I have that might work

    Please ladies, let me know what you think.

    I'm just a lurker, but had to say how much I love the yellow / red print.

    KWILTKRAZY I love the two with red and gold. But what other mates do you have to match them? Or if you want to stay with the Halloween fabrics, do you have a solid white (or gray) you could add to the green bats, black spiderwebs, and the solid orange and yellow? If you use the spider web or green bats for A (prominent) and white for D (background) then you could use the orange, and yellow for the other letters. I'm suggesting add white[ATTACH=CONFIG]558136[/ATTACH] or gray to the last 4 in this picture.

    LSTEW2212 Love your fabrics!

    Our number has just passed 40 and still counting, plus those hiding in the bushes. Don't be scared, come on board. No train robbers around and we always have a fun trip!

    want to keep large Halloween print, just add a medium in the B spot. Couldn't move the green bats or
    orange because of the yardage. Can't find any others in stash that I think would work.

    Kass I love that material too. Put it in a chicken quilt, looked good as feathers
