    I really like the last photo with the whole bunch put together. It just feels right to me. My opinion only.
    The color palate is bright and beautiful.
    Show us when it's finished.

    Thank you all for your input and suggestions. We sure have a diverse group on here, everyone sees something different. i just love the creative process, don't you? I'll make sure and post with what it eventually ends up looking like. I still haven't figured out what I'll actually use it for, or if I'll end up selling it or giving it away.

    Thanks again!! :thumbup:

    I like the option that sends those wonderful blocks to my house!!! I was all for option 2 until I saw your last one. That is a beaut!

LOL Okay, your quilt, your choice...but I'd try running the cool colors in one diagonal and the warm colors in another diagonal...just to see how that looked. Somewhere I read that having a "rule" or two can make all the difference in organizing. I applaud you for wanting to make the most of your blocks...your work is beautiful!

    Oooooh...just saw the last photo...and if that is just tweaked a bit as I mentioned above...I'm going to believe that it will be GREAT!

    Ok, so Bobbinwinder, here's the rainbow layout and another "tweaked" one I call cool and warm. Makes a difference, doesn't it? Isn't this fun? Seems like unlimited possibilities.

    The cool and warm layout is fabulous. The one before it is great, it has movement, it's pretty, but it only moves toward the lower left. The cool and warm one draws your eye all over! I still like #5 a lot, too. It also has movement, but it's chaotic and looks more scrappy (which I love).

    What do YOU like, Lori?

    I'm leaning more and more towards the cool and warm. But the problem is, I like them all!!! Guess I'll have to make more than one, won't I? LOL
