The brown paisly definitely caught my eye but I also like the darker blue. It is hard for me to tell though with only one in there for visual. I love your stack and whack blocks they are really beautiful. I also liked the idea of maybe using blocks of the original fabric.

So many ways to see this ... I like the brown and paisley

One more brown.

Brown and gold.

I like the 9 patch idea!!!!!! That would be really pretty!!!

I like the blue, it pops.

I think I like the brown paisley

Brown Paisley

Yep, find the carpet color for my vote

Me too. I was going to say the gray, but then I realized it was your carpet.

I like the brown and gold reversed best. Gives a feel of symmetry and elegance.

I like the brown and gold, as well, for the same reason.

I think the light blue pops out and enhances the quilt. But honestly I think it should be a much lighter blue.

I like the dark blue.. It makes it pop..

I also like the idea of 9 patch with the brown and gold. Really like you S&W!

I like the blue. It makes it pop.

Oh My--I opened a big can of worms! I never thought I would get such diverse opinions. Not sure either block won the vote. LOL I might try the light tan or gray too if I have anything in that color. I don't have any of the fabric left of the owl fabric. Some of the blocks minus the corners were given to me--plus a stack to be cut and sewn. So I finished all the blocks and added the corners in brown and came up with the setting out of my head. Still not sure where this is going...

I agree! The blue really makes the centres "pop".

I like the "boring reversed brown and gold". sorry.. tee hee

Love your stack'n whack. I get stuck with settings too sometimes. You have a lot of choices. You don't want to take the eye away from those gorgeous stack'n whack blocks. I think I like the brown paiseley too. Can't wait to see it.

Light blue!!!! Gorgeous quilt!

Have you tried it with black? Blocks are great.

I like the brown and gold. to me it makes the blocks stand out more

Brown paisley. Beautiful colors in your stack n whack.

I looked at this and thought wow! For some reason, the thought of a rich brown or similarly coordinating dark color excites me. Beatiful so far!

Brown paisley would be my choice. Please post pictures when complete.

I liked no 2 with medium blue and your work is just Beatiful

I like the brown and gold, but think it would be better is cornerstones were nine patches so that they're "reverse" in all directions...

Do you have enough of the fabrics that you did your blocks out of to make your cornerstones? I think that either one of those would be pretty for your cornerstones. Just my opinon. Lover your blocks.

I like the dark blue

I think using the same brown as the edges of your squares would give it more continuity. Or perhaps the lighter color. Just a thought.

I like the lt blue it seems to pull the blue from your blocks and I think it makes a nice contrast to the quilt.

I like what the dark blue does!

I like a touch of blue

I like the brown, if you are going for a continuous mood to the quilt. But the light blue is very pretty. If you want to break up the quilt, that would do it.

Still trying to work it out. I really don't want to take away from the blocks. Not interested in doing too much work either so 9 patch probably will not happen but wait, it might--still thinking on it. I hate this--I don't want to be anal--I know I know, I asked.

I like the lighter ones because they don't over power the blocks. It lets them shine and be the focal point. Just my humble opinion. Jan

I like the rug best!

I like the brown and gold reversed.

I think that you should use blue. The browns that you have already used is enough and the blue would be a very nice contrast. Overall, i love the pattern and think that you did a great job. :thumbup:
