    I love it but agree with Charlee...if you are looking for fall lose the green...more brown, maroon, orange colors are needed.

    Thank goodness I didn't plan on making a whole quilt--just a table runner and a wall hanging, so only 42 blocks are started. Phew! I completed 10 tonight so I could see how I liked it.
    It says rich fall to me. I would keep going :thumbup:

    You could compromise by saying that it is Autumn in the Jungle. lolll. I really love it. Sometimes when I look at it, I feel like I am in a forest... other times I see it as fall colors. It is actually quite lovely to look at. Beatiful the way it is... keep it, and do not change it one bit. Remember, pine trees stay green in the winter, so do not worry about the greens.

    Very Pretty! If you decide to change anything, the one I would change is the lighter green nearest the middle...it is actually the shade of green I like best, but just not as much in this block...
