I too, like the mellow look of 2, and think it would look more country. Seems to be closer in value which blends instead of stands out. I like 1 also because the blocks really stand out, but I don't think it looks as country. And I love the idea of a border with applique on it. Anxious to see pics of finished top!! Be sure and post!!
