    Beautiful blocks. I think it would look great in a random arrangement but I always turn to have my blocks scattered across the quilt. I am sure you will get great ideas from the QB members on here. Which arrangement do you like the best?

    I love them both! So glad I don't have to make the decision.

    I like the scattered arrangement just a bit better.

    Since it isn't very many blocks, I would go with the scattered. Great blocks.

    I like a color fade and would put that purple one in the far left corner and work up--blues, turquoise, greens, etc. Neat quilt.
