What a difficult choice! If I had to make a choice I'd go for #2, but they're both really pretty.

Second one is the one I like most. The first layout reads very dark and masculine to me. The second layout would be good for anyone!

I am with you. Number one is my choice also.

I like the second best.

Prefer the first one--your fabric choices are beautiful.

I say make more blocks and make one of each quilt. I like them both and it is hard to decide which one I like best.

My first choice is the 1st one. They are both beautiful!

definitely the first one

Second one is my choice.

You can't go wrong. Both ways are great.
