    I don't usually like 'matchy matchy', but I do for this block. Otherwise, I think you lose the idea of it. Having said that, I'm not sure I would include the darkest blocks - unless you're planning to add more blocks to your quilt. They grab the eye and stop it from moving around the quilt.

    I like the first one, but I really like the last one of the random x's.

    I like the first one the best, with the darker ones spaced out more. I love your color selection. Was this from one fabric line?

    First Picture. That is a tried and true pattern. The other sets seems to take my eye in all directions, and I lose the beauty of your prints.

    I think the first picture is more pleasing to the eye. Nice piecing.

    Well, I'm going with the 1st one, and have started putting together the x's and o's. I'll be sure to post pics when it's done. Thanks again for the opinions.
