I am doing this quilt for my sister-she picked the colors-I think the pattern is Ohio Star? I am trying to create some sort or rhyme and reason. My husband says add one more color to the large diag. square. My mom likes #2 hodge podge.

just for me, I like #1. :)

What gorgeous colors.

I think I prefer the first one.

I like #1. Lovely...

lay-out one...lovely

My vote is for the first one too....

#1 -- Very nice. I love the colors.

I think it is unanamous.

1

#1 does it for me! Nice bright colors.

I may suggest something else. How about if you move around the triangles forming the actual stars to make the alternate evenly. I would keep the lay out #1, but making this slight change. Keep the triangle that is the same color of the center square always have the same alternate pattern. It may give you the rhyme and reason you are looking for. I hope this pic explains what I am suggesting.

I like #1.

I vote to keep stars more one color.

#1 for me..............

Thanks Maria-there are a few I did that with but now see I missed a few. My husband thinks I should add one more color to the large squares or take one out of the star. That would make more of a pattern.

I Like #1 Very pretty

Number 1 for me too :thumbup:

Number 1, very pretty!

I think I do prefer the stars the 2 colors with the center color and the right point (?) the same color. But what should I do with the 3" square that runs diag w the 2". That is the one my husband said to make a total different color. Any thoughts. I was thinking like a robin egg blue or maybe a deeper purple

My fave... #1.

#1 but don't tell Mom we all voted against her lol
Yes, it is the Ohio Star. I love your fabrics!

one

one - sorry for the dup but don't think it's means I vote for two!! Still one

I like them both, so I'm no help.

Thanks Susan! what is your opinion on the 3" square's keep them all one color or make them multi

I like #1.

#1 with the suggestion Maria gave,and I'm not sure about adding another color. :D

hmmm, i like #1 myself. and the 3" squares look good in multi colors too.

Just what I was thinking too Maria. The lack of symmetry troubles me.

Maria gave an excellent diagram and I agree with her to give it the symmetry you're looking for. It doesn't look like you've sewn anything, so you have time to change it around. See how she has the orange and purple one alternate star points so that it goes, orange, purple, orange, purple, etc?

Your colors are fantastic and it's going to be beautiful no matter which way you finish it. Very nice. :-)

In the first picture, the 3" squares are the same color as the 2" squares and if you're looking for symmetry, that's the one you should go with. Again, it's going to be a beautiful quilt no matter how you do it. :D

Judy, I was looking closely at Maride's drawing and I really like what she did. What do you think of it???
Oh- I also like your alternating blocks. Forgot to tell you that :D

I like 1 as well

I like # 1 best.

#1

I love one, the colours look better that way

Marde suggested is a good one. That said, #1 gets my vote.

#1

ONE!

first one, beautiful by the way

I like Maria's suggestion. That would really make your
quilt pop.
Have a Great Day!
