Input needed please

Hi again,

I know it's been a while but is it OK because I've been sewing? I'm finishing up a bunch of quilts that I've been procrastinating about and I'll show you very soon (I promise).

I've also been working on a new quilt, which I am totally addicted to. I've ben english paper piecing similar to other people. Each of the stars are about 1 3/4". Each piece is also one of the fabrics I own - a little crazy I know, but I wanted it to be scrappy. The question that I need help with is what colour I should use for the background black


or white

There is also the question of setting where I can do diamonds as above or hexagons.

Please, please let me know what you like.
