I don't care for the pink and yellow together, but how about replacing the pink with a pale orange? By the way, I really like that last one with the yellow dot and green print together. Your pillow cases are all very pretty.

I love your pillow cases but prefer them with the bright colors, so I'm NO help. LOL

Don't like the pink and yellow either. Why don't o try another colour inside of the pink. The rest look great.

I've seen this fabric and it is bright. I think anything in pastel would not compliment the fabric. Why don't you send her these pics and let her decide. Sometimes people have no idea how something is going to look until they actually see it - they can't visualize it in their head.

I think it's a difficult thing to pick a lighter trim fabric and make it GO when the main fabric is bright but your last choice of the yellow and lt green works.

I like the green and yellow, but not the yellow and peach. Try a deeper purple/pink with the yellow. I like all your other combinations too.

The green with yellow trim is nice and subdued and I like it the best!

I agree the pink trim just doesn't seem to work.

The yellow with green is pretty.
Pink isn't working for me. I wonder if Pink was the band and the yellow was the trim.
Love the 3D fabrics.
