Decision made.......

I liked both green prints the best from all of the choices I tried but neither one was exactly right.  Then I got the idea to use both of them.  I think they look good with both the light and dark octagons so they might all be in the same quilt instead of 2.
Last night I sewed corners on 58 octagons while I watched Netfix.  I have 40 more sets of corner triangles cut so now I need to cut more octagons.

They really look good together. Netflix and sewing can be addicting. Chris

Perfect solution. At first glance they even appear to be the same fabric. the mix invites you to take a closer look. Love this!

Your triangle choices let the octagon's come alive. Stunning to say the least.

I'm enjoying following your thought process as you audition fabrics for the corners, and I'm learning a lot from your process and your decisions. Thank you!
