Magnolia Court - February 2015 BOM

I like this square. However, I am disappointed with the lack of contrast between the green squares of watercolor fabric and the green grassy print. My fault for substituting the green print. I was going for color coordination and I lost sight of the importance of contrast.

Changing the subject, here are the color runs that were offered this year:
2015 Color Runs
 From left to right:
  • Halloween
  • Flannel
  • Alaskana (?)
  • Batik
  • Romantic 
These are the descriptions provided by the quilt shop. Usually they offer four color runs. This year is the first time I have seen them offer flannel.

Lesson learned:
If you are going to substitute a fabric, make sure you pay attention to the contrast with EVERY other fabric.
