    These are the only choices I have except white. I dont want to use up my white for this.

    Here are the pics of the background I have.

    I vote for # 1, #3 is second choice. #2 doesn't have enough contrast, unless you're going for a very subtle look, in which case it might turn out great.

    My vote would be #1 first, #3 second and #2 last. #2 doesn't have enough contrast for me. Very pretty block and fabric choices.

    I vote for #1 (1st choice) and #3 (2nd choice). In 2 it gets lost in the background, u want it to stand out.

    I go for number one, it makes your block stand out a bit more.
