    I like the first. Love your quilt. Yes, a lot going on, but I think it makes the quilt a bit contemporary.

    You ask. I will answer. To me it is too busy. I think dividing the blocks with sashing will break it up and allow the details to shine, without being overwhelming. I really like the blocks, just not so close together.

    For whatever my opinion is worth.

    This looks really good! I think you've got it!!

    Love #2 but I would also add a maybe 1 to 1.5 piece of black to it, as most seem to like..........

    Great job by the way
