I don't know, I think you could make it work if you strategically place, but I don't think it will create the light to dark texture that you see in the blooming 9 patch, I think it would look more like a rainbow, but I don't say that as a bad thing. I love the bright and beautiful collection and think it would be great! The green 'beachy' print could be your dark...
I think this pattern might look really cute with that line:
