    What a great lesson in contrast! Thanks for asking the question. I'd go with the darker one because I am a Civil War fanatic!

    Can I still put in my vote for the darker one? I find it to be more restful than the lighter one. Depends on what "look" you are hoping to accomplish. I looked at this yesterday but this morning, same opinion.

    I really like the lighter one, it’s less busy.

    I like the lighter one. It seems to make the other fabric pop.

    I agree with the lighter one. The print is closer in size to the print in some of the colored blocks.

    Make a sample block one each with different color. You would be amazed at how different they can look.
