I know that right now gray is popular BUT but I think the white makes all of the other fabrics POP. I vote for the white!

I too like your fabric and understand that the question is gray or white so I would probably pick gray. BUT have you considered putting black with it???

Since the quilt is intended for a grey sofa, I prefer the white for the background. Using the grey might muddle with the sofa. Will you have an opportunity to check out the tone of the grey sofa?

I vote for gray. That would be a great complement to a dark gray sofa. I agree that gray will give a more modern feeling that's perfect for a young couple. Lucky newlyweds to be getting such a special gift from you!

I think the white really shows off the beauty of each fabric.
