    Default Bargello- Which one would you choose?

    Hi,I'm doing another bargello and also an African table topper which has lots of black in it. I can only work onthe table topper for a short time because it's so hard on the eyes.So, I then go back to the bargello. I now have a choice to make and just can't make up my mind. Will it be number 1 or ,by turning it around and removing the last row, will it be number two?.( I am an expert at unpicking so this will not be a problem lol). Which one would you choose? Thanks

    i like the second one. to me, the first one draws my eyes to the outside of the quilt.

    I like 2. It has more dimension.

    I prefer the second one as well. It draws your eye right into the quilt.

    I like the first one, very graceful lines that give the entire quilt a sense of movement.

    I vote for one. Less typical and more dynamic.

    I like both of them, would be hard to choose. Why not make two?
