Very pretty. There are a lot of shades of pink and the sashing seems to jump out. What if you used a pale green to pick up the green in the leaves? Just a thought.

Looks very pretty as is. Will be anxious to see it when you get it finished! I love the Eleanor Burns patterns!

I would never have thought to keep the pattern in order by fussy cutting it. Thanks for the idea and this is going to be beautiful. - J

The wall hanging quilt is gorgeous but I personally would have the sashing a bit lighter so one could see and appreciate the other beautiful fabrics. From what I see the sashing dominates in my opinion and a bit lighter would do justice to all the other fabrics but if you left it is as it would definitely be a knockout.

I haven't had a chance to read all the posts yet, but was wondering what program/how you are preparing that image of your quilt block?? I have run across a quilt image maker on a website that lets you play around with a few images and different quilt patterns to see how it would look. Would love something of my own that is more flexible and would let me load the actual fabrics I am wanting to use to see exactly how it would look. Is there anything like that??
