This is a quilt made out of knit fabrics from my brother-in-laws recently deceased grandfather. The fabrics look good together, even if my mock-up colors don't look great. Which patten do you like more? I don't think I can add too much more, or I will be out of materials. Since it's all knit, I didn't want to add any borders in regular cotton, as I don't like the look of the two materials together.

Shaley, I prefer the second design. I thing the background blocks in the first design detract from the center block. You are brave to quilt with knits. It will be a lovely remembrance.

Based on your mock-up, I prefer the first one. My eyes rest more.

​I like the second one, it kind of looks like a shooting star with the background in rays.

My husband says the second one. (that is also the one I prefer)

Without seeing the fabrics/colours you are using, it's hard to know which would be more pleasing.
To me, design wise both could work quite well.

Another possibility would be a TATW (Trip Around The World) layout
for the background squares.

I like #2 more than #1. I like the flow of the blocks, and think they make the center stand out more.
