oops.. wish there was an edit last picture

Lol....we'll start calling you doubletinker! ;)

I like the first pic best since he gold of the center pillow is picking up the gold in the chair, but would like to see how the center pillow goes with the rug.
So, I would choose the blue stripe and the center pillow in the first pic and eliminate the brown/white pillows.
Are you planning on using 5 pillows on one sofa? I think 3 is enough.

Are you trying to decide between the first group of pillows or the second group?

Are people going to be sitting on this sofa a lot or is it more for show? I ask because while it looks okay with lots of pillows it won't be easy to sit on with them.

I like the middle pillow on the first picture. Maybe get two of those, one for each side.

doubletinker!! hahaha.. love it, you're very witty!!
Should both sofa's have the same pillows? (my mind says yes).

That sagey green chair will eventually go... just need to find something to replace it. I'm trying to incorporate some soft gray-blue in the room.

I see a triple tinker in the 2nd group! I'm liking the 1st group better, less bold print, love the stripes ...

I think after looking at the pictures, I think I'm liking the strips much more than the bolder pattern....

although.. currently this is the only blue in the room..

I'm no help...I think the light blue pillows wash it all out--but I love both the prints and the pale taupe stripes together!

I vote for two of the bold print, but I wish they were larger. They seem a little underscaled for your sofa.

Do you have an identical sofa facing the one you're photographing? Are there any windows behind that sofa? I ask because it might be better to take your pics on that sofa. The glare from the windows is causing the fabrics to look washed out. You'd get a better exposure taking pics with the window behind you and we could see the fabrics on the pillows much better.

I like the middle one in the first picture best with the strong punch of gold and green. I think the room could use a splash of color....here's the place to do it.

(I also like the hammer on the coffee table...reminds me of home!)

I like the first picture more as well. The bolder pillow in the center is great!

A throw blanket may help bring out more color as well. Perhaps something with the gold/yellow color from the pillow (and the chair behind it looks to have the same coloring on my screen. But I tend to like throw blankets, b/c I always get cold!

I like the blue as well though...It give the room a very muted look. Which do you prefer?

I also like "the middle one in the first picture best with the strong punch of gold and green," but I also like the blue stripe, and I like it with the above pillow. There's a little of that blue in the print & it plays well with the blue in the stripe. Having the stripe AND the print also makes for a casual, unstudied look that suits your space.

Don't like the oblong pillow with scrollwork in your room. It's a beautiful pillow, but doesn't feel right in there. The other printed pillows are also handsome, but are too muddy for your room, imo.

Love your sofa, and your room is gorgeous. Don't stress.

Thank you everyone.. I went back to the store to see if I could find two more of the strips & the bolder lighter ones.. they don't have any! I need to head to another town nearby and look, otherwise.. I might be starting all over!

I did try and snap a picture using the other sofa, but there is a picture window behind it as well, reflecting light (one reason I love this house is all the natural light - but it is harder to snap a picture!)

I like the two striped ones + the bold from the first set of photos that is in the middle.
I would then do the opposite on the other sofa two bold and one stripe.

The first or second group looks great...pretty colors.

Saying that, I'm in the camp of "not crazy about throw pillows on a sofa". I have them and they get used when someone needs a pillow to lie down and watch TV. Other than that, they end of on the floor or stacked somewhere. I always feel uncomfortable when I go to someone houses and have to arrange myself around the throw pillows. I don't want to offend them by moving them. :)

I would do the beige stripe and center pillow from the first photo and do two on each end of the sofa. I think adding a center pillow is too cluttered looking. Plus to sit down, you will have to move the pillow anyway.

LOVE your room!!!

My vote is the floral one - the gold color in it seems to tie your chair into the space. Maybe even throw one on the chair.....I will add - that I prefer color and prefer patterns. That's probably why I don't like the plain ones you posted. IMHO you need some pop on the couch and that one gives it to you.

The striped pillows seem so neutral that I don't see the point in bothering with them. I think the sofa is crying out for some color!

I think one larger pillow on each side is enough. I agree with those that have said they hate to sit on a couch stuffed with pillows, especially as a guest. It isn't comfortable, and what do you gracefully do with them to get them out of the way?

I really liked these from PB - a bit larger, and either the yellow or the blue would be wonderful in there:

cascais outdoor pillow

I agree that 2 pillows are enough. Don't care for the light-colored striped ones. Like Cindyloo said they're too neutral.

I returned the pillows... going to look again at PB's...

Why don't you make your own? They are so simple to sew. I got sick of not finding what I wanted in the stores and started making my own.
Some of my pillows:

I agree the pillows are too neutral and there are too many of them.

Have you checked into pillow covers so you won't have to buy the whole pillow?

I have two pillows (covers I bought separately) on my sofa, both sit at an angle together on one side.

I think a splash of color would be nice.

Don't know if you have an IKEA around, but if you do, check out their cushion covers (I think you can also order on line for many of them). They have some amazing choices for a very reasonable price, and their feather pillow stuffers are terrific, again at a good price (they are not down, but fowl feathers, and are a great deal - I have a ton of them).

The Alvine Lov pillow is wonderful, all embroidered, and a good size for your couches. I have two of those - shades of yellow, green and a blue-grey.

The Urusula could be a perfect neutral for in there, and is 26x26, so a good corner pillow, with something more colorful in front of that if you like.

I also like the Benzy Land.

I like the center pillow on the first sofa picture. I would probably work with that and add a solid color from that pillow - the green for instance.

I love the middle pillow in the first pic and also the pillows Les posted. I agree that two for each sofa would be best. Are your sofas identical? I'm just asking because I'm thinking of a similar setup - two identical white sofas opposite each other. Do you have any pics of both sofas in one shot?
