Just from these pictures...it could be totally different in real life...If I had to pick one that stood out to me it would be the pink second from the bottom, before the darks start.Watson.

Jinny Beyer had a color theory book - Color Confidence for Quilters.

where she matched the colors "exactly" in the focus fabric and then added "bridging" colors between the exact matches - and then she only "used" the bridging colors.

Example: I have red-orange and blue-violet to match - I use red-orange, red, red-violet, violet, and blue-violet in my color sequencing - and then only use the red, red-violet, and violet

From her pictures, the effect was more interesting than using exact matches.

The book seems to be moderately priced on the used-book venues.

You could also draw up your pattern on graph paper. Cut small pieces from your fabrics and audition them that way. Did it recently and it helped tremendously. Only took very tiny pieces and the end result was perfect.

That is such a gorgeous floral! The fabrics you have look good to me. I would try adding some blue just to see how it looked. I do hope you will show us the end result, because it sounds like it will be beautiful.

bearisgray, thanks for the book mention. I just bought a used copy.

They all look good to me. That is what I always go with. I never give a thought as to color value or the color wheel. If I like it, it goes together.

I think the pink and peach floral next to the rosebuds might be off. On my monitor it reads a little too yellow while your other pinks have a blue undertone. Your darkest fabric may be too black. Love your large floral. Cant wait for your next posting.

The 2 very darkest brown/black pieces (not quite sure) looks too bold with the softness of the main patterned fabric. I think these will look too heavy in a finished block.

There is so little dark that I doubt it will be a problem for you since I see it in your focal fabric. Your colors look wonderful. The thing is that when you ask us we all have different monitors and will look a bit different to each of us. Trust your own eye. I always squint and then I can see if anything jumps out. Please be sure to post a pic. Looking forward to it!

how about a little darker blue?I didn't see any dark blue like that's in the flowers.

What beautiful fabrics! I would take out the darkest one or two and the lightest one or two. I've see quilts in which the focus pieces were so close in color value to the background that you could hardly see them. That makes a hole in the pattern. I like Jenny's latest quilt: Snail Trail. All the snails are quite visible and beautiful.
