I think I like the white best what do you gals and guys think? To me the white looks crisper but I'm thinking the next one might be lilac. Need your input,

It's difficult to decide. I like them both. The white one makes the squares more prominent and the red one makes the X's more prominent. Lilac will be a nice color for the next one, too.

I like the white because it's a calmer look. But, with the red one, the 12-patch blocks seem to stand out more, and the way they touch each other is more obvious. Both really are wonderful! I love the lila idea -- it's my favorite color (hint :lol: )

At first all I could see on the screen was the white one, and I'm looking at it and thinking, Gee, that's a great looking quilt. She really did a great job! Maybe I'll make one like that.

Then I scrolled down to the red one. And my reactions was a very outloud WOW! The red really pops and it looks like a completely different design.

In other words, I like BOTH of them. Great job!

Those are awesome.. the red is different, but still VERY striking.. makes a whole different pattern pop.

both are great - very different responses to them, but I really like them both. Someone else mentioned it - the white makes one thing stand out and with the red, it's something else. How fun they are - are they gifts?

I like the white one best. It reminds me of the feedsack quilts that my grandmother keeps locked away in her cedar chest. Both are very pretty!
