Decisions

At times one has to make a decision. Which way do I progress with this quilt?  What do I do with this selection of fabrics.  

I started with a charm pack of fabrics in warm colors,  red, yellow, orange, pink. This is not my usual choice of colors. I like to add purples and blues in with these colors.  I played with the simple block design in Electric quilt.  The plan was decided, or so the thought was at that time.  I started by cutting a number of yellow strips and chain pieced enough for two of the blocks.

 As you should always make a test block before going too far, 
I put those two blocks together. 

Clearly I made a mistake with the fabric charms on the left block. 

The two darks are together as are the two lights. 

While waiting for my zoom meeting Spanish class to begin, 

I used the seam ripper and fixed that issue. 

After my class, I was thinking of color changes. Without changing 

too much, could I make it more interesting?
Here is the original planned layout:

"A"

The blue green isn't the exact color,  I just used fabrics/colors 

that were in EQ to approximate the idea. 

However.........

I could make more blue bordered blocks and do a 

Checkerboard pattern like this:

"B"

But is the blue too intense in the corners that way?

Perhaps I could switch a bit and make this version?

"C"

The question remains, which do I make?  My cutting table is covered
with the beginnings of this and I am still not close to a decision. 

I don't want to redesign the entire quilt in EQ, but I am thinking of 
adding a row of charm squares from the same collection as
between each third of the quilt (top to bottom) to make it a 
longer and more useful quilt. (okay so I did go back in EQ

and redesign!)

A-1

B-1

C-1

D

Now I ask you to choose.  Which version do you like best? 
Should the charms go between the sections 
OR 
maybe at the top and bottom inside the borders????

I didn't put ALL the options in photo form, 

so if there is a not listed option that you think

will be best, tell me about it.

I  would love to hear your thoughts on this. 

Decisions, decisions!
