I say stay with the tiny, light pink floral...It pulls the green in. If you go with the other, then the green makes no sense.
Quilting will make this quilt pop!
Just my opinion.

Because of this I auditioned 2 different tone pinks to see if it helped. I thought it did to a point, but one was too dark, the other was the tone of pink that seemed to clash with the junction triangles.
With quilting I think it will look better than it does now, and my DH feels it's fine as it is.
Would you be kind enough to express your opinions please as which way I should go.

That isn't to say that something more wouldn't be pretty--but that the original is really nice. It's subtle, and relaxed and antique looking.
