    #1 is warmer to me. I would choose it.

    Here is another one for the cool blue number 2. It makes the pattern pop. I do not like the yellowness of one, the pattern and how blended it is with the other fabrics.

    By the way both are good options. It all depends what you are trying to achieve.

    I like quilts that pop. That being said I like #2 the blue. The first block is very muted. I guess you will have to decide if you want the batiks to pop or just melt into each other

    I'd go with #1. For me, #2 is too icey for the tropical looking batiks.

    I do like both fabrics, but the white makes your batiks stand out.

    I like the yellow because it is warm and goes with the other fabrics.

    I like #2 best. It looks so refreshing, and maybe cuz my favorite color is blue?


    They are both very nice tho, tough decision . . .
