Seen in Thumbnail size, (as if looking at the quilt from a distance), the one on the right (from Rhonda's posting) is more appealing to me because the design focal point is the central part of the quilt- whereas the one on the left is weighted toward the edges so the center seems a bit lost. But, when seen in close up, I like the one on the left slightly better, not sure why as I think the one on the right is the stronger design.

I'm just going to "ditto" Robs comment because he said exactly what I was thinking about the thumbnail vs close-up.
Both designs give me a very Spanish Moor/ Arabian Nights vibe if that helps you make a decision and following elements (borders)

Happy to help with the pics. Sew... my first response was for the orange on the outside as it ends the design.
But ... if you are going to add a border, the yellow design with a dark orange border. See why I’m asking about borders?
Can you tell me if this is a Snail trail mixed with Storm at sea? Or something else. I’ve been looking at the AQ dies today and still learning about these patterns.
The different color layouts really change the look.

Both are great and very pretty but I think I tend to lean towards the yellow being a little more predominate one. You sure are technology smart. That is a wonderful gift!! I can't even put a picture of my finished quilts on this board. I always have to have my grandchildren help me out on the computer.
