    I am making a queen-size quilt for my niece as a wedding gift. It will be the same colors of her bridle party, which are purple, teal, and yellow.

    I will be using Rhonda's Clara Dugout Blocks to make the blocks that I need for the quilt. But not figured out which one to use yet or whether to use sashing between the blocks, and what color of fabric. I also need to figure out which one of the colors of fabric that are in the block to use as the boarder.

    Here are three different blocks that I made up on my EQ 6 program. Can you tell me which block you like the best.

    Here are three block using the three different colors:

    Clara Dugout Block Choice 1

    Here's my vote for #1. I like yellow, and that one seems so happy and sunny.

    i like # 1 best- the contrast with the yellow placement adds spark and is a more balanced design (in mho)
