My vote is for the baskets. They seem to point to the center design, so they drew my eye to the center. I think the floral is very pretty but competes with the center design. I know the baskets will involve more work...aren't you glad you asked us???
Ultimately, you should go with your first instinct. Whichever way you go you will have a very pretty block.

Definatly WITH!!

baskets. :D

OK, it's WITH baskets. I'm sure I have enough fabric since EQ over estimates. I'm almost ready to sew together the 36 outer blocks and the Jacob's Ladders will be cut (hopefully today) with the floral for the inner triangle.

Oh, I agree with you 100%, for the baskets!! :thumbup: I do like the second picture, just beacuse I love your fabric choice, but would chose the baskets too!!
:D :D :D :D

I think it's beautiful. You do such a good job of creating wonderful patterns.

Go with the baskets. It frames your beautiful center focal point.

i agree with keeping the baskets, but since the quilt is directional i would make all the baskets face the same way...up!

i am guessing you designed the pattern and it sure is gorgeous :!:

I like the baskets too.

I like the one with the baskets. And with that many blocks, it can't be too plain! :)
