    I would definitely vote for the black-makes the blocks really pop!

    I think black is too dramatic, I would use a solid dark grey instead; still 'pops' the colours but in a more subtle way.

    If I could choose only between black and white, then I would choose white (yes, I know I'm alone... but I'm feeling brave )

    Black makes the colors pop and is very dramatic. White if you prefer a softer look. I like the black.

    In this case I like the black! Really makes one focus on the colors more!

    It depends on the overall look you want. The black makes the colors pop, but the white is gorgeous, just more subtle.

    I'm a "black" person myself. The white just doesn't do anything for me though the fabric is nice.
