Help me decide …

We have a long weekend up here in Canada this coming weekend. I’ll be spending some time working on a couple of new pillows. Here are my fabrics:

mom-fabrics - Copy

I fell in love with the multi-coloured print, then chose the coordinating fabrics. Below are a couple of layout options. The multi-coloured print is represented by black in the diagrams. I only have a fat quarter of the lime green, so will need to use that sparingly.

Which option do you prefer? I can’t decide … I do want to make them matching pillows.

Option 1
Option 1
Option 2
Option 2

Thanks for the help!!

    I prefer #2 … but only you know if you’d like the multicolor print to dominate or be an accent to the bold colors in your other fabrics.

    I like #2. I think it’s more balanced.

    #1. The multi pattern forms the star within the block, and it will jump out. That fabric is too proud to be merely an accent, as it would be in block#2. It’s GORGEOUS.

    I vote for Number 1 – love them both, but think #1 will highlight your lovely print more dramatically. Have a great long weekend!!!

    I like # 2 better. 1 seems like a group of pieces, while 2 is a star and has a clear design.

    Creo que la opción B parece más juvenil sobre el dibujo, saludos desde Barcelona, Spain, espero que disfrute con la labor que seguro le quedará bonita.

    I like #1 because of the way the colors are contained by the black but yet look like they want to burst forth.

    I adore option #1. I feel the pattern would show off the print fabric better. Although both options are a beautiful choice for a pillow.

    My choice would be #1, as the black would be more prominent.

    Option 1-it will show more of the focus fabric. I’d love to get my hands on that fabric. It’s gorgeous.
