I like the first 2 patterns best. They seem pretty straightforward. When I first started quilting, I went to quilterscache.com and picked out some blocks that I liked that were listed as easy blocks. I avoided paper piecing and applique. I made 2 of each block that I picked, but switched up the fabric for the 2nd block. I love that quilt. It taught me much. Enjoy and sew just a little bit each day.
