I'm making a zig zag quilt for a friend's upcoming baby. They don't know the sex, so I'm sticking to neutral colors. I have several orange and yellow prints, and I'm going to alternate them with a solid. I was going to due white, but now I'm torn and thinking of doing aqua. Which would you all choose?

Thanks!

White, it reminds me of a 50-50 ice cream bar.

Aqua, or sea foam. Very pretty and still baby friendly and gender neutral.

Oooh aqua and orange are my new favorite, but I would do all three, white, aqua and orange:
