I prefer the second also, though it does tend to drop th wave pattern.

Both wonderful work -- alot of motion in the first, as expected ! And there's that perfect circle formed in the second -- an unexpected result? Thanks for sharing these -- the same pattern, such different looks.

I really like them both, but the first is my favorite.

I love the first one where you can really see the waves. Nice job!

I like both quilts - but the first has much more movement.

Nice quilts.

Wow, what a difference. Adding the points to the border really changed the the way you see the pattern. Thank you very much for sharing. They are both beautiful!

beautiful - one that I've always wanted to do

They are both so beautiful Delta! A winner either way! When I think how tiny your pieces were I am even more amazed!

I like both of them ,but you're right, number 2 looks more "starry" than a Storm at Sea. What if you changed the color of the points for the border? Put white points in the dark border. Just a thought. Love your quilts!
