    I played all Easter morning--just trying all sorts of things. I really like some of these...others I'd have to tweak. Some are ruled out already. But--a few asked me to post these lay outs....so here you go!

    Remember--I'm not paying any attention to flowers/colors yet. :wink: The big sunflowers do seem to stop the flow in places--so I may decide to leave those out.

    I'll repost the first ones so you don't have to hunt them up--but not #3 since it was so close to #1.

    Boy--the sun really makes a difference in the color.

    #2 I like this one, but not the corners, so I could make corners like are in #6. :D

    #4 (there's no 3 now and I wanted to keep track with my photo labels :wink: )

    #10 I can see a need for a few adjustments here--to round off two areas facing the center--see what I mean?

    #11 I just switched the four center blocks for the these one.

    Wow, I don't know how you will decide, but it is gorgeous, makes me want to do a log cabin.

    I really like #2, it almost looks like a big flower in the center. #5 is pretty cool too! I havent seen alot of these layouts before.

    That's a hard one to decide. Whatever you decide it will be goregous! I love your fabric choices!

    #6 reminds me of a pebble dropped in a puddle--well, let's make it a lake. :D :lol:

    Melissa--I've always used El Burns Log Cabin books for lay out options, but the Judy Martin Log Cabin book had many many more. And I've only tried a few.

    Layout #10 was my final choice, but 6,8, and 9 were close. I'm not sure if I could stick to one choice!

    I really like #5 because of the swirl effect! Whatever you decide it will be beautiful!

    Those are all great, I've never seen some of them. I like #5 too. Is there a link to all these layouts? I have plans for a LC in pastels for spring for my bedroom.
