I prefer the second because I always like the binding to be the darkest.

I'm going with number 1 because the binding shows better than on the number 2 example. I like both.

First one from here. would love to see the whole quilt.

Brown looks best to me.

Like them both but #1 gets the vote

I would go with #1

I like # 1 ...

I like number 2 best!

Another vote for number 1. Lovely colours and beautiful piecing - well done.

My eye was drawn to No 1.
