I just completed the new Rays of Hope block using the suggestions I received both from the quilters in my on-line quilting group and friends.  While this is a beautiful block, it is not the look I am striving for, so I will keep working until I get the look I want.  Actually, I like the kaleidoscope look of the first sample but I understand the comments about it being so busy that your eye cannot settle onto one part of the block.  In the second sample, it is very easy to see the the "rays of hope" with the lighter background, so I am going to look for a lighter Kaffe Fassett fabric that will give me the focus to the middle of the block without compromising my desire to use all Kaffe Fassett fabrics.  A third try is on its way!!!

I loved the butterfly look of the ?rays of hope in the first one, maybe use that fabric again. It was gorgeous. Can see it better, but mmmmmmm Jenni
