    Here are my 3D pinwheels I am working on, I am ready to sew them together but would like some opinions on which way looks better. The mom to be is not finding out the sex of the baby so I went with bright primaries since she is doing the nursery in ABC this line of fabric just fit.

    Thanks,

    I like the mixed color pinwheels on the top more than the solid color on the bottom.

    I like the alternating colors better. It pops more!

    I like them both, but I think you would have more options for borders and bindings if you go with View 1.
