    Default what looks best? PART 2

    So here's the variations ... and the fabric that I am using!

    Same colour per "box"

    Ooh. Beautiful fabrics! I love batiks, and white-on-whites is one of my fabric addictions, so I'm sure it's going to come out stunning no matter what you decide. But personally I like the same color per box, or variation 1 the best. Just my humble opinion.
    Very excited to see what you do, this looks like it's going to be a stunner.

    Love your fabrics, I think the first one gives the pattern the most definition. I have made the bento box before and look forward to seeing what you choose!

    Your designs are all lovely. I googled bento box quilts and looked at the images, and in general I like the scrappier look. https://www.google.com/search?q=bent...w=1067&bih=647

    For me the first picture. The others looked mixed up and in a large quilt I feel they would look scrappy.
