    I like them both but #2 is my favourite. I love the soft muted colours as well, they have a calming effect for me. Thank you for sharing.

    I like #2. It shows the secondary pattern of the lighter colored blocks.

    I vote for two. It shows more of the slight contrast in the fabrics.

    Love number one, but two is really pretty two. Very calming color way.

    I like the first one. and I think the colors are fine. very relaxed. I tend to go too much in the other direction if you know what I mean"

    I like the fabrics. Either lay out would be fine, but if I had a choice it would be #1. Beautiful either way!
