My Grape block

Well, heres the final product...not sure if it is screaming grape or purple or not...I couldnt seem to  gather scraps and stash fabrics that I really liked together this week.  I was really stumped on what colors I liked with the purple.  I finally decided to just go batik and this is what I came up with...
What do you all think?  Is it screaming purple or grape??

I love the colors and fabrics in your block, but I am not sure it "shouts purple" - the aqua and the pink are also beautifully strong. Even it if doesn't shout purple to me, it is very lovely. Great job!

I sure do see purple/grape! you have used The color, and found new colors to apply to it. It's lively and fun! Remember this is a way to try something new. You did! Not every one will inspire a new quilt.. But hopefully you can look at purple differently and keep trying things with it until you are satisfied.

Thanks ladies! I really thought purple would be the easiest block for me...but upon checking my scrap box and my purple stash...it was difficult!!

I really like the purple batik you used. The blue, turquoise and pink (mauve?) plays along very well. I like it a lot.
