    yellow with blue cross.....seems to balance the bright colors nicely.

    Your focus fabric is yummy I have seen and felt it. Very nice choice of quilt design and layout to keep big blocks of focus fabric to enjoy and not loose that beautiful print. I really can not decide what fabrics would look best in the EQ version since the real fabrics might look and react different together can you take pictures?

    If yellow is too bright, it can make a "statement" in your quilt so my suggestion is to use orange or red in place of the yellow with royal blue as the second color in the "bars".

    I love your fabric; it is so vibrant! And the pattern you chose will really highlight it!

    Of the options you presented, I would chose #1.

    I like the one on the left better and would try making the square where the yellow intersects blue or better yet orange. just to see what it would look like with that little pop of color.
    peace

    I think that I like #3 with a slightly softer, less bright yellow as mentioned so many times already. No matter what you choose the focus fabric is smashing!
