I like the pink - mostly becuase there is a lot of background that already reads white to me - with the blocks you have shown. I like how the pink seems to pull them together. And even though it's dots, it seems to blend more into a nice background while the white with the small print reads speckled, so it find it a bit more distracting as a background.

However there will be reasons you'd want to select the white specifically because it does have more movement than the pink - so it all depends on the look you are going after. "lots of movement" does end up on the edge of my comfort zone.

And that is why the Delilah quilt is way out of my comfort zone, but I am liking it so far.

The next set of 9" blocks. These had a lot of Y seams. The little wheel in the center is great for marking them. Does not matter what angle the sides are coming together at, you can always line it up to mark the point. I use a very fine tip marker. It's permanent, but the mark is so small it won't be seen on the front. I'd probably use a washable marker if I had one with a fine enough tip to fit in the center hole.



I enlarged it - so you can actually see it lol!
