I like #2 -- there is just enough blue and neutral to make the rust and gold brighter.
#1 looks a little monotone (dull) to me.
#3 has too much blue - overpowers the other colors
#4 has too many colors - the sashing seems to become the focal point instead of the blocks
JMHO.

I like the first one the best as well. The second and third one almost take on a southwestern look. The 4th one seems a bit busy, and like another poster said, seems to draw the eye away from the leaves. What would it look like if you did a light or sky blue as the background for the leaves?
It's a pretty pattern!

I prefer #2. The blue makes everything "pop", and the pale green provides just the right contrast. The two blues together in #3 are too matchy-matchy for me. #1 looks a little washed out to me (plus my family is biased against green); #4 looks a little busy.
