I like the frist one best. It has more movement.

Like them both, cant decide.

MargeD 11-21-2011 04:06 PM

I'm afraid I like both, but perhaps the first one would give a more airy feeling for the quilt, but they are both beautiful.

I like #2. Seems to show the chain better.

Taino Jan 11-21-2011 05:10 PM

I like #2, more Irish Chain, but both will work.

My feeling, too.

I think the second one looks "heavy"

After I read all the way through this, I had to contribute my two cents, also!

#1 for me.

khenderson2 11-21-2011 06:30 PM

I like the #2 the best

Sheila_H 11-21-2011 06:38 PM

I really like both of them but for me (Irish family) I'd go with the one that has the green and orange in it. Both are wonderful, one of these days I will attempt one too

I prefer #2. It seems more visually defined to me.

jograma 11-21-2011 07:15 PM

I like # 1 Very pretty.

Silver Shrew 11-21-2011 09:20 PM

I really like #1 better.

[QUOTE=faykilgore;4698543]I am posting two sample blocks for feedback, please. They are not sewn, just stuck up on the design wall, so we can decide which way to go here. Thanks![/QUOTE

I pick the second picture.]

# 1 gets my vote !!

Jazzz 11-21-2011 11:14 PM

I like the first one too. Great fabric...can't wait to see the finished quilt!!

katigirl 11-22-2011 12:30 AM

I'm not really sure why but I like design 1 better. It just speaks to me.

katigirl 11-22-2011 12:30 AM

I like design #1 better. It just speaks to me.

mudsprite 11-22-2011 01:33 AM

I agree with doghousemom. #1. My vote for sure - beautiful.

Judyth 11-22-2011 03:11 AM

I'm with you. I like #1 best. It's going to be beautiful.

coachmatthewsvhs 11-22-2011 03:28 AM

I prefer the first one also!! Very pretty

teddysmom 11-22-2011 03:45 AM

I like #1 better.

Pat P 11-22-2011 03:19 PM

no 1 pops out to me!!

CAS49OR 11-23-2011 01:50 PM

I like #1. It seems to set off the smaller blocks better. #2 is great too, especially if you want an "open and free" looking quilt.

cheaha39 11-23-2011 02:09 PM

I like No. 2, looks crisper, not so busy to me.

kathy6696 11-23-2011 02:34 PM

I like the first one much better.

grandma Janice 11-23-2011 02:49 PM

I like the first one

JoanneS 11-26-2011 09:32 AM

I like #1 most, though both are lovely. #1 uses the white background more - gives the flower blocks a lace-like affect.
