    I totally agree,,they are ALL gorgeous, but #3 makes a beautiful dramatic splash of pink and ties it together so terrifically! I love, love, love it!!

    I like #3 better, but since it is to be a raffle quilt, any of the 3 choices will be fine because ... even if YOU are not totally satisfied with it ... the people who buy the raffle tickets will love it and the winner, especially!

    Really beautiful! Have you tried placing every four blocks in the same positions as the center block in #1? That way the quilt will be the same no matter which way it's turned (as opposed to having a center block with the flower showing which way is up). Also, it will give a bit of a circular feel to it. Am I explaining this right? Just curious as to how it would look, as if you haven't enough to do already! I love log cabin blocks, they look amazing and they're fun to make. Did you paper piece the flower?
    However you choose to do it, it will be gorgeous and super duper appreciated. Hope it raises THOUSANDS!!!!

    I like #3 (the first one shown with the roses in the center). All three are beautiful.

    Hi,

    I would buy a chance on any version. They all look great.

    I like #3 the best because it has more of the floral. I think that is the big difference between the raffle quilt and the wall hanging is that the wall hanging has more of the floral, thus more contrast between it (floral, a medium color) and the white.

    That being said, it is a beautiful quilt; you did a great job.

    I like #1, but I love #3; so #3 got my vote.
