I like the blue and the lightest background print for showing off the blocks most effectively. I'd do the boys in the blue and the girls in the light print. Or if you use the brown or the tan make the sashing wider than what you show in the picture. It does look really nice as well.

I think I'm the minority vote; I think the yellow/orange dotted fabric would really pull them all together perfectly as almost every block has a bit of yellow on the bears themselves if not their quilts.

It is going to be a fabulous quilt any way you go!
