Sounds like a good plan - it's going to be gorgeous. I'm kind of like you too, I prefer a two or three fabric selection to multiple fabrics - it's a difficult choice for me selecting so many fabrics.
Your's is going to be lovely.

There will be white sashes between the blocks, similar to the way it looks here on my design wall. Then there will be a small border made out of the yellow fabric with orange circles and an outer border make out of the black fabric with sort of fireworks display thing on it.
I have never been able to visualize what a quilt will turn out like. I am hoping one of you can visualize it and say it will look good.
I have sent my friend this picture, and she loves it. I just don't. Scrapy is very hard for me. I tend to do two colored quilts or maybe three colors...
Sorry for the posting last night with no picture. I was tired...just an excuse, but true.
