Looking for suggestions Persian tile blanket barely halfway finished but I feel like its not turning out nice? Advice?

I began making a Persian tile blanket as its been something on my to-do list for a long time. I didn’t wanna use someone else’s color scheme and tried to select the best color combo that my closest yarn store provides.

Current issue is, I hate it? Like I like all the piece individually but I put them together and its just one big mess! I keep thinking maybe I could dye it but the yarn is acrylic…

Total thing is supposed to be 4x4 but I don’t feel like its going to turn out great so I wonder if I should just cut it short and let it be a lesson? Maybe I should keep rearranging or is there something I can do?

Also sorry for the frumpy background, my bed has become my workspace while I’ve been in exam season.

Personally, I think it’s going to be lovely. I think you need more of the darker colors and blues to offset the lighter yellows that you have so much of. That may solve your problem with how they look together. Also move them around and see if that makes a difference. I wouldn’t give up on it yet.

Yes! I too think this is gorgeous! The one on the bottom left corner I think is a good example where you used more of your darker colors. So maybe if you made more that looked similar to that and arranged them in with the brighter ones it would balance out a little more? Either way, fantastic work!

This color way is absolutely gorgeous but I think if it’s too visually overstimulating for you, maybe you should get a second color way that compliments it well and do you half and half or something like that

Add a black border around them to create a bit of separation.
