I can only see 2 photos and like no 1 best.

Something else I thought about is the batting. I did a courhouse steps for hubby last yr with flannel on both sides and an 80/20 batting. He loves it, but it is very, very heavy. Probably should have used cotton on the back, b/c it is so heavy now that it is done. Just my opinion as far as the one I did is concerned but something to think about.

I would first vote for 3 then 2..........reason 1 looks like a snowball block and you did too much work in sewing the blocks together to make a quilt that can be sewn so easily.

#1 or #3 depending on how you plan to quilt it. #1 give a nice area for a quilted motif.
All would work, you just need to pick your favorite.

As a Long Arm Quilter I think #1. From the quilting prospective it has alot of wonderful open quilting space to do some really pretty motifs.

1 is my choice

I vote for #1. Looks more "balanced"

Debbr63 09-25-2011 04:48 AM

#1 is great! so are the others but #1 is my favorite!

jturner443 09-25-2011 05:16 AM

I like 1, but the red blocks shout at me.
I don't like 2, it looks like a floor.
3 tones down the shouting red, I think the design is best, alternating the red throws an interesting spin to it.

#3 is the most unusual and creative. :thumbup:

cyniree 09-25-2011 05:45 AM

The first one.

Love them all, but # 3 is my choice.

johnnietate1225 09-25-2011 05:50 AM

I like number 2 - I don't like number 1 because the light color blocks appears bigger than the printed squares. Number 3 does not appeal to me because it looks kind of like an old bathroom tile job.

Interested to know which one you prefer.

Love the colors. Can't wait to see which blocks you go with; and see it finished.

granny64 09-25-2011 05:58 AM

I like the first.

Thanks for your input. I will reconsider what I put on the back. However, I plan on this being like a "down" comforter.

I prefer to set the bow tie on point.
Give it a try.

#2 or 3. I love how the red stands out in those.

MargeD 09-25-2011 07:22 AM

All three choices are beautifull and I love your fabric, but No. 1 would be my first choice.

You make things difficult! Either #1 or #3. But all are nice. Helpful, aren't I?

fivepaws 09-25-2011 07:42 AM

IMHO number 2. It looks traditional. #1 is too blobby and #3 is not as pleasing to my eye. I would have to go with #2 or #3.
