i like racerh's suggestions if you want to stay all in the same value. i read or heard somewhere that changing the values in a quilt can really benefit the end result. For vibrant though i sure like the version with the blue cross with red square.

Oh, definitely #3 - the yellow with a blue cross! The blue brings the butterflies to life. The yellow fabric (although a little paler yellow would be nice) becomes a background for the butterflies. I think the red fabric used in #1 especially and also in #2, detracts from the spectacular butterflies - kind of muddies the quilt - and almost "grounds" them.
Best wishes.

just my opinion-I would go with #4 but I would change the yellow to black to go with the orange---but that is just me because I don't care for the color yellow, very few of my quilts have yellow in them, but do as you want.
