This is a design I've been working on in another color scheme and I just happened to see your post, so I ran it out in these colors, instead.
I don't have fabrics loaded that exactly match yours. If you like the pattern, you could send me scans and I would substitute your fabrics.
I agree with Deema that you need a cream color. I would also add one very dark brown and one very dark teal/turquoise.
In this picture, the mossy green represents your fabric on the left, the medium brown is your fabric in the middle and the golden brown is your brown/teal fabric on the right.
It's made of two alternating blocks to make a chain and for a king size, it uses less than a yard and a half of your three fabrics, plus 5¼ yards of cream prints and 3/4 yard each of the dark brown and teal. Yours would be prettier because the fabrics are so gorgeous compared to the ones I have loaded, but this might give you an idea.
Have fun! :)
