    I think you are asking if the tan fabric in the middle will work. I think yes...but black would really make the colors pop, or would that be to amish looking?

    My thought was you need to replace the pink with the burgundy or the lime green with a darker green. But that is just my opinion. I hate it when I have to use brights that really take away the beauty of the print. JMNSHO

    But I would definitely want to add one of the darker colors.

    I think a different green (more "sagey"?) and a purple would be awesome.

    I'm not fond of that shade of green with it.

    You have one light and two mediums to go with the stripe. Maybe add one dark into the mix. OR take out the green and add a dark... then maybe use the green in part of the border? :D:D:D
