    Yeah, I like that! I'd make it a pale yellow, so as not to overwhelm your other colors.

    They are both nice, however, I think I like the second with the yellow centers, but I might find another color instead of the gold/yellow. Just my opinion.

    I agree. The other colors are all pastel and the gold seems too strong. I would suggest a pastel yellow where the gold is and maybe use another pastel in the center. lavender, beige, lt grey, etc.

    OK, I imported the actual fabrics I hope to use, and with those images, I definitely don't like the yellow center. But I tried purple, as I have the same print in purple ... more opinions? I'm leaning toward the white centers myself .....
