    I'd take the one in the middle out, too. I think the pattern in it clashes too much with the other fabrics...

    Also, do you think I should use a regular 1/4" seam or a scant 1/4" seam?

    That middle fabric might make a great border!

    Green and purple is one of my favorite color combinations for a quilt. You're doing fine, keep going.

    Remember that your choices are YOUR choices...you have a right and eye of your own to please with colors. However, when you open the question as to what do others think, be prepared for some criticism. I like to think of it as creative criticism, not negative, but sometimes we can come across rather negative in print rather than in voice.
    I love your ideas...however, I would choose a bit less of a kelly green for the darker green diamond and go a bit more toward the olive that appears to be marbled on the white piece. They are totally different color values. Just a thought offered with a smile. It will turn out lovely whatever way you go!

    The colors are beautiful! Have you thought to add a v. deep green like the dark green in the swirl pattern? I'm new at this and I have a thing for deep, forest green. Happy sewing!
