Please help! Quilt Inspector is keeping my sewing chair warmed for me while we await your input..........lol Add to last post----------------(edit is a pain!) Maybe red instead of orange for the center block |
If #1 is you favorite, I would select #2 from the left as the center of all the 9 patches. It will bring in a neat secondary design in your quilt. The polka dot may have too much white and jump out at you unless you 9 patch is quite large.

all of them IMHO
|
orange, blue and polka dot
|
I like the first three personally.
|
Beautiful fabrics, beautiful cat. All the fabrics are nice. I don't know how to help.
|
Love 'em all!

I would use the first 3. Since the floral is your favorite, I would put it in the 4 corners. I would put the blue in the center and then the orange in the other 4 places. When you cut it each way, the blue would be the little square and the orange would be like sashing. I think it would pop nicely and the biggest pieces would be your favorite.
|
I think if you take out the polka dots everything will blend better. The polka dots might be a fun and whimsical backing, or at least part of a backing.
|
I feel that all would work with your design but the red could be a little bit overpowering.
I especially like the furry one in the second picture. Really fits right in and is quite at home. Beautiful baby. Gleniveve. |
