    Have this up on design wall today and can't decide which way I like it! Will leave it up a few days. The colors are not true. the red looking is really dark raspberry, the yellow looking is actually a wheat color plus the colors are not as bright as in pics. Help me decide please. This is for my best girlfriend who we visited for a week, then our car got totaled and we ended up spending over 3 weeks with her... waiting for insurance and looking for replacement car. We were not hurt, TG !!!

    I like the first one better! The dark blue squares seem to pop out at you.

    I like the first one pictured best. It's sure pretty.

    Oh without a doubt--the first design!! :D
    In the first you're highlighting the floral--in the second the blue. Easy choice!

    I like the first one - the floral squares just seem to go better in the center of the red & green sashings - it does make the darker blue squares pop - the second one is a bit more subdued to me - like it's lacking in something..

    I tend to agree with the first option. Funny; I am working on that pattern right now too!
