first one.

I love the second layout

The 1st layout gets my vote!! What a vibrant quilt!!!

That is one awesome quilt! I love them all, but if I were picking I'd say #3 strikes me. It really won't matter. You can't go wrong.

PPM...what a stunning quilt!
I like the first layout best, but as so many other have said, I don't think you could go wrong with any arrangement.

I like #3

All three are equally beautiful, but I like the random look overall. Nice work, can't wait to see it finished.

Any way is beautiful, but the first one stands out to me. Stunning colour choices!!

Personally I was drawn to #2. But as others say any one of these would result in a beautiful quilt. The colors really pop against the black and make the pattern of diamonds very dramatic.

It IS absolutely beautiful. I vote for #1.
