Two treatments for the same quilt, one using a light background, another the dark background. Which do you prefer?

They are both beautiful, but I guess it would depend on where the quilt would be used...

I love them both. Sorry not much help.
I guess it depends on if your going for a calm quilt or a drama quilt. ;-)

Wow - what a difference the change in background makes.

I think I like the light one better - but both are great!

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I like the dark the best. (I usually lean towards lighter brighter colors)

I love the dark best. I love statement quilts!! They are more memorable.
