    To keep it soft and spring, I would go with cream. Pink makes it prissy, and blue seeMs to darken it. I love the softness of it and lightness. Brightens a darker room. It is going to be a beauty!b

    This is a fabric I ordered yesterday, it is in the Barefoot Roses line too, For the joiners I was thinking of using either the pale pink with a little white on either side or now I'm leaning more towards using the darker rose with the pale green inside.

    I'm going to just keep making blocks until I'm sure. I had a lot of suggestions I never thought of and THANKS!

    This is another of the Barefoot Roses fabric which would give me more of the darker rose, decisions, decisions.

    I would use scrappy joining strips, the same as your block strips.

    Beautiful blocks! I know this is "out there", but I wondered what a chocolate or caramel would look like! Just a different thought!

    Try different colors but if it were for me I'd do white.
