Decisions, decisions!

I spent the last couple of days making these blocks....below....then added the first set to my quilt. Not happy. It seems to be missing some dark so I ripped it off and am trying to figure out what I want. I'll probably add a little dark border then add this row back on. Black is too dark...navy and red are too bright so dark green or brown. 

I'm loving my new sewing area...Al and I are shopping for some under the counter lighting. That's the one complaint I have. My eyesight isn't what it used to be.

What if your units had two black or dark green triangles instead of the blue? That would give you the dark separation.

I like the blocks as is, but you do need a stop. Lay out a grey like your setting grey, black may be too dark, any of the colors from your center medallion that are dark. BUT keep it a skinny stop 1" maybe
