Which one?
 
2 Attachment(s)
Needed to make a quick quilt so after receiving suggestions from several here on QB, I made a quilt with a free Cobblestone pattern. I learned a bit about myself. I don’t like easy patterns~ I much prefer piecing. The colors are the ones the receiver wanted (not really my cup of tea so to speak). After I made it, it just didn’t resonant with me so I thought I would doctor it up a bit and made abstract flowers that will be blanket stitched onto the quilt. Which quilt does everyone prefer? Thanks

Those flowers sure make it come alive!

Number two is my favorite!

​I like both but for me it would depend on how I want to machine quilt it. I might want the plain blocks to put some fancy quilting in.

To me there is no question, the second one, but is your person a very plain dresser, an unfussy person? Perhaps they will like the simple one better.

i like #2 also..livens up and makes it playful...the quilting of it will add yet another dimension..you will probably love it when finished!

Your flowers are so cute! And so are those stuffies. :) I can tell just by looking at the pictures which you like best. Hehe
Bigger, cuter, sweeter. :) Trust yourself with this one.

I prefer no flowers, but with some interesting quilting in the blocks. Have you asked the person the quilt is for? If they are not a frilly person they might not appreciate the flowers.

The person who this is going to is in a nursing home and has mild to moderate dementia. I want her to have a nice quilt from me but realize that things go “missing” in nursing homes.
