I want to thank you all for taking the time to give me your considered opinions here. Billi you made me LOL! Geri B. you won the day with your advice to make a couple more blocks and try out the D9P! Such a simple suggestion, why didn't I think of that?
So that is just what I did, and I loved the results. Making comfort quilts is never work for me. I love the whole process and want each one to be the best it can be.
So here is the finished top photo and I'm on to layering and quilting.
Hugs and smiles of thanks to all you wonderful quilters!!!

I like it just the way you layed it out.

I really like it the way it is - personally, cutting it up more might make it a little too busy. I also think size is fine for a lap.

oh I'm so glad you did the d9p. it looks much more interesting and has a nicer look overall

It is very nice as it is. However, you are asking us to compare 'apples and oranges' because DP9 is a different pattern. That would be very nice also. Thus the question becomes: Do you want to be finished with this project and go on to another one or do you want to continue the design path and make another decision and execute it. Either way your current choices are great. Hummmm.

Should I say 'opps'. I made my previous comment before I read all of the comments in the posts. Then, as I backed up through some more of them I saw how you had made the DP9 with your blocks. I really think it is just wonderful. I think it is worth the extra effort for design interest. Someone is going to have a warming treasure. I mull over design choices also and I think the outcome is worth the extra effort. Great job.
