    Default Which layout?

    I've got all my blocks ready to go, but I'm starting to rethink the layout. Assuming these picture attachments work, which would you pick? Zigzags, or pinwheels? And which border layout? (The outermost border color is my bias tape color selection)[ATTACH=CONFIG]595409[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595414[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595415[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595410[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595411[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595412[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]595413[/ATTACH]

    My vote is for zig zag 2 + border B

    Zigzag 3 , Border B gets my vote.

    Here's why: I like how the dark pink zigzags form a visual stairway "up" on the left and stairway "down" on the right.

    Border B brings out the pale blue from the focal strip. (I'm not a fan of the pink border because it gets lost against the design. The first border--white only, if that's how I'm interpreting it-- is okay, too.)

    THANK YOU! I hate when I start to question my original design, because then my brain gets into the "What if!" pattern and I can't move forward. I appreciate an outward view on what others are drawn to
    Thank you, I love the great people here on quilting board!

    As usual, I’m odd one out. I like the pinwheels! Border B is my fave.

    Zigzag 3, then light blue stop border, then light/white, then finish with pink

    Any of the ZigZags work for me. The pinwheels look too chaotic for my taste. I like Border B best.

    I like all the zigzags. They all work. My preference for the border is border B.
