    Default Christmas Swap Block - too busy?

    I just finished 2 of these. I'm wondering if it's too busy. Did I use too many different fabrics?

    Thanks

    How could you think there's anything wrong with this block? It's so cute and cheerful. Make more!

    Nope nope and nope! It looks great. If your worried about putting a lot of them together and it being to busy then sash them or make every other one more in one color range, like different greens, or blues, ect. But to me it is very up beat and cheery.

    Thanks for all the positive feedback. I asked some of my FB friends, non quilters. I got a couple of similar responses; the background fabric (off white) is too stark compared to the tree. Any merit to this?
