Advice on fabric selection for Quilt of Valor
I'm going to piece a quilt of valor similar to the first picture. My question is whether I should use light grey, cream or white for the "white" color. I've attached a picture of the fabric selection with each of the "white" colors. My pictures probably do not do a good job differentiating between the colors so if you can't tell them apart just give me your off the cuff opinion.
Here's the design picture:

White:

Together (Grey, Cream, White)

I would use the cream since your other colors are more "muted", as in not primary colors of red and blue. The more muted colors are what I used in the QOV I made. I can't really see a cream color on my laptop, just going by your description. It will be beautiful!
