Wow! What a difference -- good job!

I would like to know the pattern name of the second one I like that one.

the second quilt is just beautiful .It may have been a lot of work taking it apart but boybboy did it turn out great.See there was a reason you couldn't make it work :-D :-D

Your final design is absolutely brilliant! And gorgeous, love it! Those fabrics have such busy patterns that in the first design they were all screaming at each other - chaos! Putting the white between them to give the eyes somewhere to rest was the perfect solution. Good job!

I just love your finished quilt! Love the design!

I'm sure that has happened to all of us. I agree, the first one just seems too busy but that second one is a winner. Great job. I bet DD loves it. Thanks for sharing.

I love your alternative. That turned out perfect. Just the way it should be....Wonderful job!!!

Your final design is awesome. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

You are so right! I like the way you got it finished and not the original way. Pretty quilt.

I like your final design much better. It's more pleasing to the eye. :thumbup:
