    To keep with the "antique" look I like the yellow print. If you're looking for the "pop" then the solid yellow. Let us know what you decide. Thanks for sharing.

    It might be too late. Just reading this now. Go yellow. It really sets off your other fabrics.

    I really liked the 1st brown, but if you decide to go w/solid yellow as so many followers are encouraging you, please select a more toned down yellow. The one in your 1st group selection takes so much from the fabrics in the plates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Should be a solid fabric!! Shows off the prints in the blades better that way!
