working with leftovers to get a charity top out of these Henry Glass pieces. Which layout? If I put in the grey squares, I can disguise the seams I will have to use the get the red sashing long enough or...[ATTACH=CONFIG]610609[/ATTACH]

That should read Sashing Decision but auto correct decided differently! This is option B. Just sew the red sashing and ignore where the seams end up?[ATTACH=CONFIG]610610[/ATTACH]

Either would be fine, but I vote for A

I Prefer option A. Just like the look better than B.

I like option A but prefer it without the large grey pieces.

I too find the large gray strips distracting and interrupt the visual flow of the quilt. I do like the red with the little gray squares.

I like the first one myself :)

My two cents, I like B the best and I would then border it with the red.

I think A is too busy and distracting.
Layout B showcases the blocks much better.
Your eye is drawn to the blocks with B, whereas in layout A, my eye is drawn to the grey crosses
and not the blocks; which should be the star of the show!
I might even take an inch or two off the width of the grey strips...
maybe have them be twice as wide the red sashing. That would balance it out a little better. :)

They both look nice, but I think I'd cut the grey sections in half. They are a little distracting at that size.
