I like the second one

Judyth 09-25-2011 02:08 PM

I like them all but I think my first pick would be #2. It's going to be beautiful whichever way you go.

i really like 1

Janquiltz 09-25-2011 02:49 PM

#1 would give you lots of lovely room for some great quilt designs. #2 is a traditional bow tie, and #3 has a lot of movement. If it was going on my bed - I would want #1.

I like #1 best

#1. Makes the blocks' centers not as obvious & really has movement. I like your fabric choices, too.

Jennifer22206 09-25-2011 03:16 PM

I like #1 best. It's visually appealing to me. :)

I like the second one best. For whatever reason, I think it's easier on the eye. It looks like a bow-tie quilt.

ggmarieconboy 09-25-2011 03:42 PM

I THINK ALL THREE ARE PRETTY COOL!

Lisa Marie 09-25-2011 03:42 PM

I like the first one.

I love the bow tie quilts, normally I'd say Number 2, however with a Kingsize bed I'd go with Number 1 :) have fun what ever way you chose :)

I like the first one, but you are the only one it has to please. The colours are lovely.

Morag 09-25-2011 04:55 PM

#3 Looks a lot like a bow tie pattern:)
The red border will frame the quilt nicely.

Paisleyc 09-25-2011 05:08 PM

I like all three for different reasons. I think it depends on the size you are making-single, double, king, lap size. Personal preference has a lot to do with it. If you like one over the other--do it. Your colors are nice and the border being red might make a smaller quilt look funny but not on a king size. So I think it is all relative to the size of the quilt. But if you have quilted for a while, your gut instincts are probably pretty good. Go with it.

I like #1. Great for quilting designs.

Sandynorm 09-25-2011 05:34 PM

#1 is my favorite, then #2.

nlgh 09-25-2011 06:59 PM

I like all three, but 2 or 3 are my picks. No. 1 is what everyone is doing these days.

I like number 1. But than I have used that pattern as a wallhanging. It looks like a wreath if you only use 4 blocks. Here is a picture of the latest one I did and sent to Alaska. If you had 4 extra blocks you could make a wallhanging to go above your bed to match your quilt.

I plan on backing it with flannel and putting thick poly as batting. If you have any advice about the back or batting let me know. It would be much appreciated.

#1 - for sure, for sure! It doesn't shout BOW TIE. It looks like a new quilt block design. Great colors, good job. Belles

#1....it leaves you a nice area to showcase quilting

dohogn3764 09-25-2011 07:55 PM

I definately like #2 and the color choices.

I'm with you on this one!

#2 is my choice.

katigirl 09-25-2011 11:19 PM

# 2 looks great, but I like # 3 also.

sew1096 09-26-2011 12:13 AM

I also like the arrangement of #1 so you can use pretty quilt designs in the circles.
