I think it would depend on the likes and age of the niece. All of them are beautiful. The younger ones in my house like #1 and the older go for 2 and 3. I like 3 but would make it a row longer to have a dragonfly block in the middle. I love the fabric and wish my oldest DGD hadn't seen it. Will have to try to find it. I start working on here graduation quilt next.
