Default Can't decide on colour...

I'm working on a zipper bible cover and made a tiny log-cabin cross for the front (3.5 x 5''). However, I can't decide on what colour to use for the main fabric that will cover the bible. These are 3 ideas I have material in my stash for (incl. zipper and bias tape):

What's your vote? Red, brown or green? Thanks for your help!

I like the red very much. (My bible has a dark red leather cover, so it strikes me as kind of traditional.)

Brown looks more manly, while the green is neutral. I can't see using the cross you made with the red, so my vote is for the green.

Green. Green signifies "New Life". Red is my favorite color but Green is my favorite dolor to live with because it feels fresh and new

I like the red. It brings out the cross. The colors together remind me of Christmas, The Birth. The red reminds me of The Blood. The brown and green seem to wash out the colors in the cross. IMHO
