    I really like the way you did it. Good color choices too.

    Initially, I mainly saw the two contrasting colors, but up close (second pic), the fabrics really pop. I think the curves in the quilting make a nice foil for the squares. Good job!

    Yes, two charm packs, with some spares thrown on to the pieced back. I've made this pattern in another version with a combination of one charm pack and various solids from my stash -- makes for a pretty economical quilt, both in terms of fabric costs and time spent.
