    Yes so many choices. I do agree that the orange is very contrasting. That is why at first I spread it out then decided if it was present to make it prominent.


    Or do I want just a relaxing pastel and remove the orange.


    I have so many scraps I will be making more quilts.


    Love all of the comments!


    Thanks.

    I thing I like the one with the Orange "L's" scattered rather than on the diagonal.

    Since you used the term “scrappy” quilt...I like the first photo best. What a great use of your leftovers.

    This is such a happy quilt!! So fun and cheery!! I like the orange as an accent and I prefer the layout in your 1st pic. It is whimsical and allows your eye to travel around the quilt to notice the other fun prints - it gives the design more movement.
    Which ever you choose will give you pretty results!!

    Thanks costume girl could not have said it better.

    Most do like the first one so I will probably go with that.

    Even though I did have another layout with the oranges in the outer corners the first has more movement and that is what I wanted to achieve.

    Carry on. I am always looking for more input.

    The first one is more interesting.

    I'm working on a flannel quilt right now and just love working with it.
    I also prefer the first one but they're all adorable so you can't lose!

    Isn't it fun to move blocks around! I sometimes spend hours/days/weeks doing it. Number 3 provides a nice center medallion. Depending on how big you want to do this, you could add some more blocks that make the orange into a border around the medallion. And then some more around those blocks, making another orange border.
