I like the red. There is just something about red that pulls scrap quilts together and it gives a warm feeling. For a boy in a shelter situation the red is so warm and inviting-I'm sure he needs that-whoever he is. Thank you for reaching out to someone in need.

Love your blocks! I'm a big fan of red, but for some reason it seems to overpower the blocks. The blue, my absolute favorite color, sets the blocks off beautifully. Whatever you decide it is going to be a spectacular quilt.

Your piecing is amazing. Such accuracy is beautiful to behold! I don't think either the blur or red shows the blocks to their best advantage. Something darker or lighter that the fabrics used. The blocks are so lovely it probably won't make a bit of difference...you quilt will be wonderful. Please show us the completed quilt.
