I’m making a Swoon quilt with only one super big block (80” x 80” + border). It’s for a gift for one of my best friends and purple is her favorite color. I wanted to use this fabrics I bought ages ago which I loved at the moment but I’m not so in love right now.

I wanted to make it scrappy just like Katy/Ginger Monkey has done in hers (that would allow me to use all the different fabrics) and because I really loved her blocks.

Last night I laid it over the bed and didn’t like it very much. Too loud/busy? Too many different fabrics that don’t match? Perhaps I’m already fed up with the fabrics?

I thought perhaps I should unsew some HST and try to get each flame/ray in just one kind of fabric…

What do you think? Do you like it as it is? Is it horrible and should unsew?

Thanks for your help/comments.
