I like #1 best

number #1 I love batiks.

If you are going for an Irish chain, and want more colors, your center square will to be larger to be able to get the chain look. If you are doing two colors, the nine patch is fine. Also, as much as I like the jewel tones, the contrast ( in the blocks without the black) isn't nearly enough to accent your chain fabric. It would be a shame to do so much work, and have the colors just blend into one another when the quilt is one the bed. I think you need a MUCH lighter, of the black, background for those jewel tones.

Absolutely the first one!

first one.

Either #1 or #3.

i love the first one. the colors are really pretty together i think!

both are very nice-but I would chose #1 as my first choice

I also like #1 the best...

I guess I am a little outside the norm....#3 catches my eye. Since I am not into the pattern, or don't know enough about it, #3 may not fit the design, but I like it best!
