Here's what Quilt Pro came up with when I copied your fabrics into it. BTW--I have the butterfly fabric in the purple & green colorways. It's in my too pretty to cut pile right now--LOL.

It does have some contrast so it is a subtle pattern but I like it. Green, as another user suggested might make it too "in your face." I have a king size Hunter's Star quilt top in blue & white. It's one of the first tops I ever completed. I'll attach a picture of it, too so you can see how striking this simple design can be when done in high contrast dark/light.
