I don't especially care for the light blue. The other 2 look really nice. :lol:

I like the first 2 colors, but why not use two or even all three colors? I love to piece the backs of my quilts, it adds interest no matter which side is viewed, and some of them end up truly two-sided! Here are three simple ones...they're really not wonky, I'm still trying to train my DH on how to hold them (HA!! Wish me lots o' luck!!)

Pick the color that you like best! Any of the three would be just fine, but the mauve/purple does bring out the flowers .. so does the orange. Good luck with it!
