    I like #3 the best - makes the trees stand out better and reminds me of the sunsets at Key west. :lol:

    The dark bark border gives the trees a sophistication that 2 and 3 don't offer. The geckos turn it into a whimsical piece. The red and orange give it the feel of a sunset. Which one you choose depends on the "feel" you want the quilt to convey. I'm also throwing in my advice to be sure to stitch the veins in the trees fronds. It will give them depth and accentuate that style you want.
