I like all of your layouts, but my favorite is the last one -- the one with all of your blocks set at different angles. It seems to be a little more vintage than the others. Your fabric choices are really terrific.

The differences:
The first is just the black and white drawing.
Differences in the colored drawings:
1) Light green triangle is always on top.
2) All the same color triangles are "framing" the square
3) Odd columns: Dark green is on top
Even columns: Dark green is on the right
4) As random as I could do

I like a controlled look and would go with the blue. If I was doing it, I would have all the light blue frame one block and the next one with all the dark blue, etc. It will be a cute quilt no matter what you decide.

If you are still considering that the hourglass blocks are too big, have you considered cutting them down, perhaps a bit wonky and framing them with sashing/triangles to square them up again? It would lend a bit of whimsy to a child's quilt.
