    If the couch is gray then if you use the gray sashing it will disappear. I like the gray a lot though. If you use the white it will pop against the sofa better.

    Just to twist it up further how about a lighter shade of green from the leaves?

    I vote for the grey, as you have several grey or grey toned fabrics. I like your fabrics.

    Black for sure... it would look dramatic and expensive. If not black, then darker gray. Just MHO. :-)

    Can you tell me who makes the striped fabric with the flowers? I would love to have some of that. Thanks

    I think it depends on what you are wanting to end up with. Gray is calm and blending while the white makes all the colors (even the gray) really pop. The black would make the whole thing very dramatic and elegant. Love your fabric especially the yellow flowers.
