I like both. But maybe option A a little bit more.

I prefer 2 . But what comes next as that also needs to be taken into consideration.

I like the bubbles fabric best. Didn't even notice the beige at first, and had to go back to see what it was after I saw the bubbles fabric. If it's an area for fancy quilting you're looking for, though, the beige is the one you want. What a stunning quilt you are making! And you piecing is perfect!

This quilt is stunning!

too funny Ube!

Option 1- the beige - is my favorite too and I love your color and fabric choices Yael! I'm so impressed with your skill in creating this!

If the material in #2 is going to be used in the next round, I would go with the beige. Going with #2 would blend too much into that next round.

Definitely A. B will detract both from the star and from your quilting.
