    I like the second better, but could you mix them up even more and see how that looks?

    Hello and welcome. Usually I go for total scrappy, but I do find the first arrangment more appealing. Whatever you decide, I'm sure it will look great...you seem to be having a lot of fun with this and that's what it's all about. Be sure to let us see what you decide.

    I love the whymsical randomness of the second layout... I wouldn't use borders, and maybe a scrappy binding too :D:D:D

I may have to lay it out a couple more times to see. Scrappy is a challenge, for sure. Not that this is some critical masterpiece, I just want to have a fun one when it's done.
    use that camera to take pics of the layouts-makes it easier to identify what you like, placement-wise! looking good!

    I think the chequerboard pattern is the best one, and I would randomly mix the green blocks in between the others. it looks like a fun quilt.

    Yes, these blocks do look like confetti. Throw them on the floor and see what you come up with! And welcome from Central PA.
