Yes, the quilts have different fabrics in them. However I could have used some of the same in each one, the colors are very similar.

I like the last one. The blue looks like water and with the coral, it look good.

I'm thinking if you want "serene" go for # 3
I'm thinking if you want it to 'POP" go for #1
Very nice quilt ither way !!

I also like the 3rd choice. The two blue borders set off the quilt the best. It will be great whatever you decide!

I cut out the borders last night. I am putting the waves in blue on, then the coral then the bright green with yellow dots for the binding. I hope to get them sewn on this evening and maybe even get it sandwiched for quilting tomorrow.
Thanks everyone for your suggestions!
