I have the devil's own time trying to decide which lens is clearer when getting new glasses! I like b best, but both are nice. I did a drawing like this when I was up north, except I had squares of a focus fabric and 4 patch mixed in the picture. Loved what it looked so I started making blocks, well I found that I had to do 9 patch instead of 4. Guess you have to take into consideration that 2 1/2 inch strings do not make a 6 1/2 inch 4 patch! Top turned out cute.

I believe it depends on your color and fabric choices. Will it be all solid or scrappy all over. Will the large square be scrappy all over or the same fabric. Same for the strips. It is hard to visualize the finished quilt and how colors and fabrics play together from a black and white line drawing.

When being fitted at the optician's for glasses - anyone else have trouble deciding if one can see better with A or with B? or with C or with D?
When it is close - I usually choose the one I like "better" - even though - as far as I can tell - the clarity of the view is about the same to me.

In this case I like A, more movement. I am sure either will be great though.

Hmmm, I was going for A until you turned it. Then I picked B What appeals to me is the opposite orientation to the layout. That is, if the quilt is to be hung vertically, I like the bars across the top row to be horizontal. If the quilt is to be hung horizonally, I prefer the top row of bars to be vertical.
If it's to be a lap quilt (in which case it'd be used "vertically" ), then A.
