    I'm with DogHouseMom on this one. The first one while pretty is just a tad too busy for my eye while I find # 2 relaxing to look at, if that makes any sense.

    The #2 layout has more contrast because the flowered blocks are kept away from the solid looking white blocks. When the flowered blocks are beside the white, they get a little lost, imo.

    I love the fabric that you chose.

    I like # @ It seems to flow better to me. The most important opinion is yours! Make it how you like it! It's going to be lovely how ever you make it.
