They are pretty good Kristen. All you need to do now is make sure your chords form a pattern, with each chord leading into the next chord. For instance, i'll use part of your chords:
G/ F B Eb
Ab/ F# Bb C Eb
Both Hands: Eb,F#, Ab, B, C#, Eb
A/ F# A C Eb
Bb/ C# Ab Bb Eb
A/ C# G B Eb
C/ E Ab Bb Eb
F/ Eb Ab C Eb
G/ G C Eb F
Eb Bb Eb/ C# Ab Eb Bb or Eb Bb C#/ Ab C C# F
Chord explanation
The first 5 chords are fine, but then after the A / C#-G-B-Eb you go to C / E-Ab-Bb-Eb, which doesn't make a whole lotta sense musically or theoretically. If I were you, I would have went back to the Ab / F#-Bb-C-Eb chord, then hit the C / E-Ab-Bb-Eb. After that, you got that F / Eb-Ab-C-Eb chord. Not bad, but it doesn't flow well from the last chord. If I were you, I would play a F / A-C-Eb-Gb. Then I would follow that up with Bb / Ab-Bb-D-Gb, then back to your Eb chord.
Chord explanation w/theory
*Remeber your musical ZIP CODE: 3-6-2-5-1
First, using your chords I'll give you your progressions nubmers:
G/ F B Eb (3)
Ab/ F# Bb C Eb (4)
Both Hands: Eb,F#, Ab, B, C#, Eb
A/ F# A C Eb (#4)
Bb/ C# Ab Bb Eb (5)
A/ C# G B Eb (#4)
C/ E Ab Bb Eb (6)
F/ Eb Ab C Eb (2)
G/ G C Eb F (3)
Eb Bb Eb/ C# Ab Eb Bb or Eb Bb C#/ Ab C C# F (1)
Now, looking above we see that there are a couple trouble spots. First spot is between the A / C#-G-B-Eb (#4) and C / E-Ab-Bb-Eb (6). Like I told you earlier, that doesn't really make a lot of sense musically and theoretically. Why? because #4 is not really a key part to a progression like 2-5-1 or 7-3-6.
Whenever you see a # or b progression number, don't jump to another number that's far off. You should go to a number 1/2 step away. In this case, I suggest going to 4, which will be your Ab / F#-Bb-C-Eb chord. Once you play that 4, now you ready to move to 6, C / E-Ab-Bb-Eb. And after 6 comes 2.
You do have a 2 already, F / Eb-Ab-C-Eb (2), but it doesn't really flow to well from that 6 chord you played. So, now we need another chord to replace it with. I gave you the suggestion F / A-C-Eb-Gb, so we'll go with that for now.
Next, should come some type of 5, but you have a 3, G / G-C-Eb-F. You can play a 3 if you want to, but again it doesn't flow to well from the 2 chord you just played, so I'm going to give you a 5 to follow up that 2 with, Bb / Ab-Bb-D-Gb. Then, you can end with whatever 1 you want to play.
Your version w/some suggestions from me:
G/ F B Eb (3)
Ab/ F# Bb C Eb (4)
Both Hands: Eb,F#, Ab, B, C#, Eb
A/ F# A C Eb (#4)
Bb/ C# Ab Bb Eb (5)
A/ C# G B Eb (#4)
Ab / F#-Bb-C-Eb (4)
C/ E Ab Bb Eb (6)
F/ Eb Ab C Eb (2) Change to: F / A-C-Eb-Gb (2)
G/ G C Eb F (3) Change to: Bb / Ab-Bb-D-Gb (5)
Eb Bb Eb/ C# Ab Eb Bb or Eb Bb C#/ Ab C C# F (1)
You see what I mean now about chords flowing? I hope you didn't take any offense to what I posted. It's all in love and helping you become a better musician. You on the right track, so keep up the good work!!!
