More Mauve More or Less







Last night I had a little time and found some almost mauve fabric ... really ... it's not as pink as it looks here. I've found the posts on this color challenge
enlightening and have been dying to jump in.










This is my finished block and the color in this pic is pretty close to the real thing. Thank you little Kodak pocket!








Since I have no plan at this point,
I'm not committing to a background color but I like this cherrywood with what I've got so far. (Really ... it's not that pink and the cherrywood is much richer!)

Love these fabrics and the pretty mauve flowers. All these colours go with mauve very well.

I like the green with the mauve too. Who knew we would all embrace the mauve? Hehe

I love the piece of primitiva you threw in there. Great fabrics to use with mauve.
