#1 because it compliments the trees.
#s2 &3 not so much because they don't tie in with the fabics in the top. The geckos are cute but a whole different shade of green than anything else in the quilt. The red/orange isn't anywhere else in the top so it's a little jarring to me.

I do love the inter-twining palms, soooo cute.

I love the orange. It does look like sunset on the beach.

#3 would be my choice. I thought it totally accented the whole picture.

Ohhh, the purple looks so relaxing! I guess it depends on what mood you want it to have. The geckos look fun. The bark makes me think of stable or sturdy or something like that. and the orange-y sunset makes me think of romance. Hmmm... So many choices! Its going to be really beautiful no matter what you go with!

I have to say that I like the Geccos. #1 seems too dark and I cannot really put my vote on #3. I don't think the purple looks bad either; coordinates somewhat with the blues. hmmm, maybe that is the one...... I can see why you could not sleep. :roll:

I vote for # 2 - it brings out the greens in your quilt.
