Quilted Table Runner

For Christmas, I got a gift card to a fabric store from my in-laws, so I decided to start something I've been wanting to do for awhile: a table runner. Over the weekend, I started the project, and here are the three squares. I really love the fabric from the Paula Prass line, Woodland Delight. I read somewhere once, that when quilting from one fabric line, throw in some other fabrics that complement the line, to make it more interesting. So in each of the squares, there is one fabric I found from my stash to mix things up a bit. Can you tell which fabrics I threw in? Do you think it adds or takes away from it? I think I like it, but I'm not sure yet.

ooh, i love it. i'm not 100% sure, but is it the cornflower blue with white in the last picture that is from your stash?

and i wish we lived by each other so that we could be crafty together. we should have a girl's weekend where we bring projects so we can create without being interrupted!
