I need opinions please
Before I continue with this Ribbon Quilt, I need some opinions please. I just am not sure there is enough contrast between the blue background and the green ribbon (for lymphoma). I had hoped for the effect of the ribbon floating over a sky background.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

It looks like enough contrast to me. If anything, you could maybe put some more of those red-yellowish check fabric pieces along the center of the ribbon to provide more contrast -- also, you could add more of the greys in the middle blue section to create more contrast, like what exists around the outer edge of the ribbon.
As far as having it "float", what about adding faux trapunto behind the green ribbon?

The black & white shows it perfectly. I think your blues and greens are the same tone value and not giving you the contrast you're looking for.
I would consider making the blue lighter or the green darker. Also, consider eliminating the white squares. They kind of look out of place.
