Stuck on this quilt

Is it still a WIP if I can't figure out what's wrong to start working on it again?  I started this quilt many months ago, I love the fabrics and I also love the idea of this pattern by Sew Kind of Wonderful.  Now as you may be able to tell I really want to work on it but there is something about it that doesn't seem right.



Each time I unroll it in an effort to work on it I just feel something's off.   When I sent the above picture with this question to my daughter she suggested I start by removing one of the fabrics,  she said the stripe was distracting.  


That was more than a month ago and I'm itching to work on it, I'm not one to have multiple outstanding projects laying around.  I discussed it at last weekends guild meeting, it was suggested by one I take a rotary cutter to it and slice it up its fun, say WHAT?  Chopping it into an abstract doesn't work for me although I appreciated the feedback.  To be fair I have never posted pictures of this anywhere so unless you know the pattern called Metro Rings it's just an open question.

 


After I finish each project I unroll it for a couple days to ponder what to do next, take it apart, make changes or keep going.  Then a bit sad I roll it up again and start something else, I'm so glad I made my design board with 2 layers, I do believe out of site is out of mind so I always roll it so I can still see the pretty fabrics peeking over the top. Maybe after this project I will decide what to do, off to work on the Michael Miller Challenge.
