Do you think this pattern would be okay done scrappy?

I agree, with mostly medium fabrics, the scrappy would be muddled. Adding a dark brown or even a pumpkin for the contrast, and then a mellow yellow or light beige for the lights will brighten up the scrappy look. Just my idea.
I think it would look great scrappy, but most of your fabrics are mediums. I would probably minimize the red (which is dark compared to the mediums, but bright compared to the dark brown) so it isn't too distracting, but it would add a nice spark here and there. You would need to use the dark brown for the dark in the pattern, along with the lightest fabric for the light; everything else would be mediums.

I think so yes
I think it would look great scrappy using those lovely batiks. If it were me, and I had enough of the wine red, I would use that where they used the dark brown and use the dark brown for my second dark. I think the red would be bold and attention getting and the other colors would definitely be a perfect setting for such a jewel!!!
