    the purple in the flowers and a white print would work, also a polkadot. Love to see what you end up with.

    I would change that bottom left fabric (tan/yellow/not sure what color it is) to a tone on tone cream/off white to give more light/dark contrast. Is the bottom right plum or brown? I think it needs to be a darker color. I really like all the colors, but like some said, it needs more contrast from light to dark.

    Not crazy about the yellow or brown.

    Yes I would say so. I wonder if they would make a pretty Dresden Plate. I usually like bold colors but pastels work out too. Maybe a Wedding Ring. I do agree adding a blue would help.

    I think you need some kind of dark for contrast.

    I really like the top 3 fabrics..but not the bottom 2 on my screen the floral print looks like their is a lavender hue to it so maybe add something of a light purple ?..that is what I would do..Happy quilting and blessings to you!

    I like the top three fabrics, but would try to add a color to make it pop. Maybe a piece of the blue in the floral would add to it?

    I'd toss the brown and put in one that is striped with light purple in it, for extra interest.....
