This...Hi Tilde,<BR/>I think your block is looking great. This is Kim McLean, I made that quilt in the Glorious Colour website. You might like to try my method of fabric selection. With each block, you will find there are three or more big pieces. Find 3 or whatever number of big prints in compatible colours. Use the areas where there is a lot of colours, don't worry about the symmetry, use approximately the same areas of the fabrics. With Kaffe's fabrics, there are other areas where you'll be able to find some other bits you can use for the balls etc. <BR/>In the website, there are closeup photos of the blocks - if that would help. Sometimes using unexpected colour combinations is also fun to do.

Love the Kaffe Fassett fabrics.<BR/>I empathize with you this time of year. It's not my favourite time either being dark most the day. <BR/>bunny hugs...EllyElly Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13132964984706757601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38385826.post-24444686582320466922007-12-11T15:34:00.000+01:002007-12-11T15:34:00.000+01:00Hallo Freind:)Have you played with the backround c...Hallo Freind:)<BR/>Have you played with the backround colors? I think you may find a better sizzle factor with a color that is opposite from the orange on the color wheel-maybe a blue or purple for this group of circles. I know how you like your colors to sizzle! You are inspiring me to get started on my bigger blocks....quiltcontemplation blogspothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073675331096590657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38385826.post-51594289582351129182007-12-11T12:54:00.000+01:002007-12-11T12:54:00.000+01:00I plan on starting this quilt in January, I think ...I plan on starting this quilt in January, I think your block looks great!<BR/>For me it is going to be a challenge cause these fabrics are way out of my comfort zone./normal palette!<BR/>I am doing it with some friends who actually are supplying the kaffe fabrics!
