They are all great, but the green one (# 3) really caught my eye!

I have that book and yes it does have a similar feel to it. I guess I was so close to it I didn't notice. Thanks for the eye opener.

I like the first...the med and light fabric show off the moose and do not detract. IMHO You will have to choose. Usually your first thoughts are best...

you know the scrappy makes it look like the moose are coming out of the woods. all sort of blends to the eye, but they are all good.

I also like the first one. I guess "framing" the moose blocks would throw the measurements out of whack.

All three are nice but I really like #1. Please post again when you have the top finished. Going to be a great quilt.

The moose is loose in 1, can hardly find him, in 2 he is present, in 3 he is obvious. I like 1 but of course I'm not looking for the moose, I can see why 3 would be the answer - he is right in your face.
