I like this layout! Interesting solution to the problem of the Y taking center stage.

This layout is better, but I'm kinda with the others who feel it looks like two different projects--a beautiful floral OBW and a cool cubes OBW. You said you don't want 2 quilts, though; how about a reversible, with the cubes on the back (although, IMO, the cubes deserve to star on their own right as a front).

I love this! It makes me think of someone excavating a wall in an old building-and discovering something underneath the initial surface. A true art piece!

I really like this layout. I might try moving some of the darker blocks from the lower left up by the blue cubes, although I don't know if it would be any better.

I think the cubes make this quilt sparkle. I really like them!

I don't care for those cites in it either. Find them distracting.
