    I love the plaid. Makes it a "fun" quilt. The green is nice, but "safe". I prefer fun to save.

    I like the green better. I think the plaid draws your eye away from the pattern.

    I like the plaid bestbut I'd like to see it used on the bias and that would mean probably having to buy more fabrics and piecing a plaid together is hard ...much easier to use the green and that's very nice too.

    This is my 2 cents for what it is worth you have had a lot of really great responses. I prefer the green it gives the eye a place to rest as you wonder in and out of the pattern your fabrics are beautiful by the way and love the pattern you chose for them. The plaid is nice but it compete's with the poppy fabric I don't know what I want to look at first.

    Let Me know which one you like! One is more on the fun side and the other more traditional. I like them both so need the votes to help. Size is not a matter, it is not for anyone in particular and is waiting for a forever home.

    I love the second and if it's looking for a forever home, I have room here!
