I am choosing colour/fabric for a duvet cover for my Mom. I can’t decide to do white or green on the outer HSQ's. The white looks crisp and clean and makes the blocks stand out. The green looks cozy and lush and pulls it together with the centre square.

Which do you prefer?

I love the green.

I like the green

I'll go with green, too!

Green, what about a shade darker?

Green ! But love it both ways !

I'm with jstitch - get a deeper value in there to make the yellows POP

i vote for green :D if its a duvet (couch?) cover. i'd be afraid white would get dirty real fast. in my house anyways. :(

Green--definitely!

I second or third this

But it's your project, so do what you prefer.

hmmmmm......green for me. :)

I notice a trend here..........

White... the red, green and yellow looks too Xmas-y for me!

I'd have to say green also.

What about green and red for the blocks (cube things) and the yellow for the background?

I'm with the other three (or was it four?) that said a darker shade of green. Either one will be beautiful, though. Just let us know what you decide....

I vote for the green too.

Green! I noticed the white makes the blocks look like they are floating.

Hmmm, I think the green gets the vote, don't you? Teehee! Interesting what a few of you said about a darker shade, I will have a hunt for a darker fabric and see what it looks like.

Thanks all!!

Jstitch, moopi, bearisgray, zyxquilts and justquiltin’ you were right, a darker green on the HSQ’s really makes a difference:

Well, I missed the voting, but I LOVE it with the darker green!

Like the green.......pretty quilt!

i am gonna go against the crowd on this one (like i have never done that before...lol) personally i prefer the white. but it will turn out great no matter which you choose :)

I like the green best :wink:

ME TOO!-----use the dark green for borders, the white looks so crisp and fresh (and your mom probably is neat and won't get it dirty, unless she has big black dogs like me that shed all over the place....

Regardless of what you choose, it is going to be beautiful and your mom will be thrilled!

I vote for the darker green. It does make the yellows pop and it doesn't look Christmasy like the lighter green.

GREEN.....red in corners

I echo. Green it is -- perhaps darker. Beautiful blocks !!

I like the green too...are you done with it yet?? :lol:

HI- I like the green better than the white.Thanks- Barbara
