Log cabin decisions



I'm going with four colors (mainly cuz I have a LOT of these four colors - must deplete stash before hubby kills me) and came up with these two designs. I like the uniformity of #1 (but it could be a little blah) and the randomness of #2 (but it almost looks like a flashing light). What do ya'll think?

My quilting eyes prefer the action of #2. It keeps your eyes moving across the piece and adds interest.

I think version 2 looks great.

I'm an orderly type... the first one looks nicer to me :)

I like both, but for different reasons. #2 has lots of visual interest in it. #1 is lovely too, but would you be able to knit the same squares over and over? That might help you decide. : )

My quilting eyes prefer #2 as well!

Thanks for the input! The more I look at each, the more I like #2. I'm gonna start tonight!

I'm using Adobe InDesign but you could do it with Illustrator or probably even Word, if you had the patience.

Thanks again and I'll post updates.

I'm sure either will be beautiful, but personally, I'd go with 2.

I'm another orderly person and like #1 best.

I like #1 best. Don't like that middle square in #2 = the red outline looks out of whack against the rest of the squares. I think I'd like #2 better if that middle square were different.

Another former quilter for #2.
