    I would go with the second choice picture group, the darker blue print. Maybe you could use the flower print for backing? The block is very pretty!

    Personally, I'd use it for the back.

    What if you do a medium border in blue, use the material in question for the backing and the binding????? Just a thought, but whatever you chose will be beautiful. Good Luck!

    I agree!!!! I think that it is to busy and blending enough. It would make great backing!!!!!!!!!

    I think the quilt is great as is and the fabric you're asking about will add even more visual motion----which I don't think the quilt needs. How about a muted print like a tone-on-tone dark blue instead?
