I love the circles...just like bubbles in the water and picks up the colors beautifully.

I definitely like the yellow---it makes you other fabrics pop out more---

I like the yellow also. Circles are cute but are distracting

Love both, but the circles over shadow the cute frogs. Yellow looks great. Sweet quilt.

The yellow is my choice. Adds to the quilt. I think the circle fabric is cute, but distracts from the quilt.

The yellow isn't an exact match for the little yellow squares but since they won't be touching I think it will be fine.

Soooooo folks, what's your opinions on the 2 choices --
circles or plain yellow?

Of course if anyone has any of the same little frog fabric, I'd be tickled to either buy/trade something for it. I'd need about 1 1/2 yards give or take.

The binding and back will be the same green as in the center of the quilt.

Thanks for your thoughts..

Give it a sec while I add the 4th picture pretty please :)
Ilike the solid better. does not detract from the center.

Yellow. Then circles really take the attention away from the frogs. Cute fabric, but not for this quilt.
