Can't Decide on Layouts

So, I am working on this new quilt and I am so super stumped on how to layout the blocks.  I still have some more fabric and want to make a few more blocks, but I don't want to commit/cut anything until I am ready.  The different choice could change what blocks I cut and sew.  These are not the best pictures, sorry. My best quilting time is usually around 10pm.

So, option #1:






































And, option #2:






































I am trying for a 'rainbow of flowers' type of look.  What do you think?  Leave me a comment on which you like best, or if there's another layout I haven't thought of yet and might be super cool! Thanks so much!

I am linking up with Freshly Pieced for WIP Wednesday.  Hoping there is some good advice over there :).

  1. I like the second one a lot better than the first.

  2. I like the first one with a bit more interest for the eye and less orderly - good luck deciding, it's beautiful

    1. I can add some more greens, teals, and yellows to the bottom to help balance the reds and pinks on the top. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.

  3. I usually go for the more scattered layouts, but the 2nd one looks outstanding to me - it really showcases those fabrics. Perhaps view the bottom row up top - to offset the yellow row from the center? hmm, that's a maybe! Have you played with them on point?

    1. You know, I love on-point and I didn't even think of it! I will try that; thank you so much! I also thought about staggering the columns up and down to create a little flow. Maybe I have some more settings to play with. Thank you so much for stopping by and helping me out. I appreciate the comments.
