Everything tells me to lay it out in a gradient style, but that's only because I want everything I do to be perfect and I know it won't be so as they say 'don't sweat' the small stuff. Thinking about quilting it with variagated thread. If it's a pain to work with I will go with a solid color....what do you think?
Stunning is the word that pops to mind! The layout is fantastic and, for me, it speaks the 'modern' look.
My favorite quilting thread always leans toward varigated. But, a thought crossed my mind that in this case, a solid might draw the blocks together. Maybe give them a cohesive feel. Wanting a sense of order in randomness. Varigated would tend to blend more. Perhaps choose a green, yellow, or the peach color for thread. You did great on the layout expect nothing less from yourself as you choose the thread. Your choice will be the right one. Love to see the finished piece.
