Which would you choose?

I can see your white print as the background fabric ... which would then mean several different ones for the charms. I'd start with what you have, though I would probably leave out the plain red as it reads much the same as the dotted red. I'd look for a darker blue to add to the mix, a gold print, and something with the red-blue-gold all together, plus any others that work with the mix. That is, if I wanted a multi-colour RW+B look.
Otherwise, I would look for an assortment of blues ... or reds that mix and match.

I am assuming the 5" squares of medical fabric will be the charms, and you are trying to decide on the sashing? Depends on if you are aiming for a calm quilt or a cheery quilt. The blue would calm down the entire quilt; red would enliven it. Between the reds, I actually prefer the solid over the little dots.
