    You did a really nice job putting all those together. I know how difficult it is to see such a variety of fabrics and wonder if it all goes together. In this case, if this is one of many dresdens that will be in a quilt, the background fabric will be what will pull it all together. Depending what you use, I envision a really handsome quilt!

    Sometimes it's hard to envision the finished project with just one block. I agree that adding the background will make a big difference too, it will help tie it all together....lol. But I do like what you have done so far. It is very bright and I love bright colored things. Keep going and I am sure you will see how beautiful and original it is.
