Layout Options

While piecing my two Yellow Brick Road quilts recently I also pieced blocks for a charity quilt. Yesterday I played with the layout of the blocks.

Layout #1

Layout #2

Layout #3

Layout #4

Layout #5

Layout #4 is how I usually sew these blocks together. I've never really played with their layout before, even though I've done this pattern several times. I'm not sure how these will get sewn together. Do you have a favorite layout?

This is an interesting block. My favorite layout is #3. It has a lot of visual impact. Have fun!

I love this block but could never get the x to match. I like the first view best. Great quilt!

No 3 appeals to me - and No 5 would be interesting, too. and No 4 (as the opposite to No 5) has a strong visual impact, too. Whatever you decide - it will be a wonderful quilt !
