    They're both nice, but I think I would opt for the green. Really shows off those pretty blocks nicely.

    I like the second one better too and maybe it's just my computer but the second one looks more like greenthan the first pic......I also agree with candledish - swap some of the blocks around - the oranges and both blocks with pink (bottom 2) need to be spread around to even out the colorsways. (IMHO) But do love your blocks, very pretty.

    I think something bolder with more colors in it compliment the butterflies even better than the small subtle prints. Just my opi9nioin

    I like the tan, I like the green, the green better gives it a vintage look! GO GREEN!

    I think the sunflower fabric gets your eyes to much, and takes away from the stunning butterflies but i like the lighter one.
