    Oh, I think it is beautiful! Put it up for two weeks and look at it again!! Maybe you have just spent too much time with it.

    I love the colors and the few flowered prints with the bold solids. This is so dramatic and pleasant at the same time. It's wonderful!

    You could always quilt the white border with color thread and thereby darken it a bit. I think it is pretty now though, yellow and all.

    It looks good to me. If it were mine, I would use brightly colored (maybe variable?) thread to quilt on the white. Maybe leaves or vines.
