Sorry but it looks like someone cut up a block all wrong. Don't like it at all.

I didn't like the first one at all, but I kind of like the Greek key secondary design of the second one.

I think it's kind of cute for a small quilt, but you have to realize that when the blocks are sewn together, you will lose all the points of the squares in the edges.

I have seen a 16 patch cut up on the diagonal, and that's what happened to that, also. The poster just said that's what is supposed to happen.

Have you tried putting the squares together so the center is all yellow where they meet ? Maybe just a different look to try?

I like it, but if YOU don't like it, then I would go another way.

I like the greens and yellow for a baby quilt but I do not care for the way it looks in the blues even though I like the blue fabrics. Go with your heart. If you aren't happy you won't enjoy making the quilt. Good luck.

I think it would make a cute and very interesting baby quilt.

I like the green/purple/gold. the fabrics have matching designs so it doens't look at all haphazard. The blue is pretty, but I think the first is my favorite
