I made this same quilt twice. I hand stitched both of them and used different fabric for each. It is amazing how fabric can change the look of a quilt. I keep changing my mind on which I like better!!!

They came out so differently. Thanks for sharing.

I like the top best, but the second is more uncommon.

Oh I can't choose either.

They are both beautiful ! It also reminds me of when I first started quilting if I saw a picture of a quilt in a magazine and I didn't like the fabrics I didn't even pay attention to the pattern. Time has tought me to look outside the box.

They are both great. I like the circle quilting on the second one.

I like the circles, too. It would make a great baby boy quilt.

That is a good analogy of the two quilts. They are so different.

It is so interesting to see the difference of the 2 quilts. How in the world did you get your circles quilted so evenly on the second quilt. Great job on both. Thanks for sharing.
