I like #1 the best for comfort and #2 for the contrast and pop. So both would work.

When I hear "tradewinds" I think of a tiny island in the ocean, so the light blue fabric seems better suited to me.

Here is a link to the pattern - http://www.cozyquilt.com/Aspx/Produc...productID=1228
And yes, I used a batik jelly roll from Moda called Dancing in the Rain.

I like No. 1 as it complements the batiks and lets them take center stage, while the white pops and the batiks don't shine as much. Gorgeous fabric by the way, but I'm partial to batiks. Look forward to seeing what you decide.
