    I love it. A yellow/blue combo always seems so fresh and cheerful to me. The different textures make my eye move around so it doesn't seem too "blendy" if that makes any sense....I suspect, it doesn't. Personally, I wouldn't change a thing. I think your color choices are excellent. But I agree with JustAbitCrazy, if YOU don't like it, you probably never will and you should change it so YOU can be happy with it.

    it's fantastic. i agree that if you're going to change it out, that top one is maybe a bit too light. but honestly? i think it looks truly stellar.

    An amazing job! Did you select each fabric yourself, or did you purchase them as a set?

    Consider putting the darkest yellow against the darkest blue and work your color progressions from there. May then take out the lightest on the blue and yellow.

    Love it the way it is. Great contrast in the darker colors. If you do not like it ......donate it.

    I love it, I would wait a few days and make sure you know which colors you would change. It might just change how you feel if you step away fr a bit!

    I think your color values are very nice. The light to dark spectrum compliments are very visually appealing.

    I really like it-it catches the eye without being overwhelming. Looks sunny/cheery to me !!
