    I like the wider ones. Are you using other colors and prints along with these. If so, you could mix the two widths. just my opinion .... and hope it helps.

    I like the wider one. The narrower one seems to require a smaller finished size block to be in balance. Just my opinion

    I agree with the other posts. My vote would be wider.

    I'm clearly in the minority - I like the smaller 4 patch. Keep in mind that whoever I vote for during a presidential election generally loses.

    I like the wider.. you can get a bit more "feel" of the print. By the way ... Wonderful fabrics!

    They both look good but my personal preference is the thinner one because it looks more like a stripe than a patch.
