    Has to be the green. The green allows the green in your hexes to wake up.

    I like the green for its liteness. I like the lavender for its softness. I like the rose for the pep. I like the purple for the contrast. ...but I like the green best.

    I was all for the green, until I saw the rose. It is more dramatic. So I'd go for one of the two.

    Have you thought about white as the background. I think everything would pop then.

    I think I would select the rose. They're beautiful blocks, but I can see that the print was a little too small for a OBW. You had a great idea in putting them together in another way.

    Why not do a row of each. All seem to go together
