Which is More Important?
#21
Color and design go together for #1 in my view. And it is not necessarily how simple or how complex it is that gets my attention. It's simply a matter of does it please my eye. It may be very bold or very muted, very simple or very complex, but if it all works together and is pleasing, then I like it.

I would say for me it is number 1 AND 2, although it is not necessarily the complexity of the pattern that matters, but just how attractive I find it. For example, I like curves, whether pieced or applique. I like certain blocks, for reasons I can't explain - cake stand, for example. I don't like other blocks (Jacob's ladder isn't a favorite).
Color and pattern, in other words.

For me, if the colors don't work together, nothing else will make me love the quilt or the project.
I think that technique - such as good seams and non-lumpinesss follow. But color coordination is paramount.
