I like the blue or the tan because they make your circles pop. The lavender seems to take over a bit

I think you need something just a little darker than the lavender.

Just to add to your confusion, I vote for lavender - prefer the depth of color which make the circles pop!

Nice idea! maybe the lavender on bottom, blue on top. Instead of having a straight line across, you could join the 2 pieces on an angle to echo one of the angles that your circles are on.

Light bulb! Maybe you could use all three fabrics & echo both angles. Have the blue fabric at the bottom, tan at the top & lavender in the middle. The triangle pointing in would be the fabric with the most pop.

Lay it out and see what you think about all the ideas you have tossed at you! It's beautiful already & will be very striking whatever you decide to do.

It is hard to pick. Like someone else said, you couldn't go wrong with any of them. I guess if I had to pick it would be blue.
