    Default beautiful! I love the layout except for the lower florals...I think they would be e

Doesn't like the light floral right under the paisley print in the lower right corner on the last two photos.

    Please let me know what you think.

    Here is the RANDOM layout

    Here is the DIAMOND Grouping layout
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]451970[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]451971[/ATTACH]

    And here is the layout with each fabric grouped in TRIANGLES

    Another vote for random, although I do like the diamonds as well.

    If you decide on the diamonds - for that light print in the lower right corner ... perhaps if you swap it with the darker yellow print that is center left. Putting the lighter print between two higher contrast diamonds might work.

    I really like the second and the last one. Love the colors..
    I agree with the person who suggested moving a darker unit in the corner.

    I vote random. the one set of triangles has less contrast and looks like one piece of fabric at first glance (may also be an issue with the picture/computer and look different in person). when it is done randomly, that issue disappears. Love the look of the random one.
