I actually like the yellow as it brings out the centers and makes them really P-O-P.

I like the yellow that matches the flower centers--kind of ties it all together! This is going to be a beauty!

Beautiful blocks. I like your last photo the yellow sashing with the 9 patches. I think they look framed and the yellow pops the centers out.

I like the lighter yellow, but I think the 9-patch makes it too busy.
Your blocks are beautiful and I would hate to see the beauty taken away by adding too many colors and patterns.
Once you quilt it, I think it will be distracting if you have the 9-patch and the bright white. Just MHO.

I like the yellow with the 9 patch. It seems to bring out the colors in the dresden and 9 patches.

I don't usually like yellow, but I LOVE it with your yellow centered Dresden Plates!
