I like just the grey and mint. Don't care for the orange

I like it a lot without the orange. The soft gray and mint looks very modern.

I would first ask your daughter if she wants orange 'pop' in her quilt. She may be wanting something more soothing and relaxing, since she asked specifically for mint green and gray, rather than something bright.

I think use more orange, and orange binding too.

I love the color pop! I think between the grey or mint is just fine! If it was me, I'd leave it.

To me, (even though I love orange) the orange is way to bright to contrast with the gray & green. I really like it without the orange, but if you feel it needs it, I would go with a lighter shade. Love the pattern you are doing in this quilt. I would also ask the person that ask for these colors before adding anything more. She may not want the brightness in the quilt.
