I say use the both - use #1 with the sashing of #2. Where the sashing color mets up with the block little square, those colors would match. Aren't you glad you asked? It will be nice, whichever way you choose.

I think No. 1. The little blocks around the center squares draw your eye into the floral blocks. On the second one you see mainly the sashing and it is a bit busy. Definately No.1. Nice balance to it. Very pretty.

I love them both but if I had to pick only one I guess I'd lean towards #2

Wish I knew how to use EQ7 better!!

I like the first one the border makes the bigger blocks kind of pop, where on the second one the bigger blocks get kind of lost.
And I am a scrappy kind of person so don't ask me why I picked #1...

I really like #2! It seems more put together, don't ask me to explain. The small squares remind me of mosaic...a rich look.
Happy quilting and hug your grand daughter for me. Grand babies are just that...grand.
