    Of the two, I like the blue; however, that could be because the green reads as near-Black on my screen. How about a Rich Brown? Not dark, but chocolaty. although that might dull the red. Your work is absolutely beautiful, btw.

    Wow! I love the Moda fabric you chose. I like the darker color, the blue seems to take away from the blocks. The green makes them stand out more.

    I really like the green but as said earlier, not as airy--the feel you want. The more I look at the two pictures I think the blue would give a very different look-the green might lend itself toward more Christmas tones. Whatever you choose that is going to be a beautiful quilt.

    I really like the dark it sets it off., but you are going for airy so the green will do it.
