Hello -
Thank you all for your contributions to the green fabric vote
discussion! I thought it might be fun to approach it from a different
angle as well just to see what would come of it. I pulled 30 clips that

I really like Danielle's fourth recommendation, both as a lovely color and as

My understanding is that it's a yellowish green, making the color in the
middle link most accurate. At least on my monitor. Exclusive_silks is

I'd say of the three, the second is the best, and the most interesting,
although none has quite the right undertone. I actually had some synthetic
(sorry, a gift!) fabric awhile ago that came REALLY close to your
illustration--I used it in combination with a cream-rose-and-green print and a
