Okay, I am still working on the sampler but think I need to step away from it for a few. I get stressed...lol. Anyway thought I would make a quilt for my cousin who is going to have a baby boy in June. I had this fabric just waiting for an occasion. I got it clearanced so that makes it even better. Anyway here is what I need. The first pic is the material. The next ones are different variations of how to put it together. This is where you all come in. Which of the pics do you think would look the best? I kind of like them all but just wanted some input. I have all the pieces cut just waiting to assemble.

more variations

Hmm tough choice. They both look good. But I think I'd go with the first one. More symmetrical. Either way, it's going to be great for that new baby boy. :)

I think they are both lovely , so not much help am I , the material is lovely too

Now you have added more. I like the blue but not too clever if its a girl.

I LIKE THE LOOK OF THE 1ST BLOCK!!!!!

I vote for the first block, sooooo cute :lol: :lol:

Oh I didn't know you'd be posting more. I still like the first one best.

Definitely the first block :D

All of those choices are lovely but number one gets my vote I dont know why I prefer it but I do

lovely fabrics too :)

yep first block, sounds like you got a winner!

If you turned each centre block around one, it would form a pinwheel effect?? that might look good too!! :D

Love your fabric choices alot - cute or what!!! :D :D

This is what I am using for the backing.

add my vote for #1, please.

i also vote you make one for me. :-)

i liked the first one too and what Izy said about the pinwheel effect sounds good!

I agree, the 1st one

I also like the first variation too. And Toni, I want to thank you!!!! I have a striped piece similiar to yours and did not know how to use it and now I do. Have some ripping out to do, but I think the end product will be worth it!!! Thanks again!!!!!!!!!

I love your backing fabric! Have you decided which way you're going to go with it?

I like the first one also, I think white on the border with a small print or dot would look nice for binding.

There all great. But I like the 2nd one or the last one. :)

Let us see it when your finished.

I vote #1 too. A pinwheel would be fun too! Those fabrics are just too cute! Great picks!

I was going to go with the first block too, then I thought of what Izy wrote and decided to give it a spin. I tried it and I agree I like it! Doing it that way makes a golden star. This is what I believe I will go with. Thanks for everyones input, always makes you look at the broader picture with others opinions that you may not have seen on your own. Thanks to you too, Izy.
And your welcome beachlady...lol. This forum is awesome isn't it?

I added a pic of how I am going to do it but it is really blurry, I think the camera is dying or the batteries, not sure which one yet. Hope you can get the idea though!

Adorable. Good idea Izy.

Have a wonderful week.

Izy had a great idea there!!! Now THAT'S my favorite way to put it together. :D

I like picture 2 an 3 :D

I like the one with the solid blue--blue is my favorite color! But doing the pinwheels would look cute too!

I have some of the same fabric! Same problem- you solved it! I have blocks already cut out, they were left over from a Project Linus quilt. I'm going to borrow your pinwheel block idea and do the same quilt! Thanks for having a problem- you solved mine along the way!!!!

Remember-post your finished results!

Barb

I really like your final choice! Very cute fabrics!

Again, thank you Barb and Izy - Love the pin wheel idea. Now just have to work on my first traingles. Going to do it!!!!
