I finished the center blocks for my French braid quilt. Now I need to decide on the arrangement. Would anyone care to voice their opinion?

As well, I like the first one. Depends on how much movement you want though, the whole pattern is quite lively, I think the dark-bordered way brings a little more control to it...the last one the least control/the most movement. They're so pretty!

I like the 3rd one. The center looks like a big pinwheel and adds lots of movement just like the braids.

Looking great! I can’t decide as the difficulty is, do you want the braids to blend into the center colours or to be off set?

And I have to be different because I really like the middle one the Log Cabin in those deep blues adds a very warm feeling to the block center.

My vote is for number three pinwheel because it make all of the blocks look more centered and like it was a purposeful design. The others look disjointed and confusing to me.
