Sticks

I have named my Scrap a Palooza quilt -- Sticks!

Except  I haven't decided on the final Layout..
These are the two choices that we all liked:

Option 1:


And Option 2:

Opinions???

You can find the pattern over at http://quiltingismorefunthanhousework.blogspot.com/  under Scrap a Palooza

It kind of reminded me of this one:
The Quilt that had to grow   HmmmmWonder where this one is????

Very cute, I personally like option 1 best.

I like Option one with the yellow in the middle. In the second one, it looks like you ran out of blocks and had to make more and didn't have the red or blue so stuck the yellow on as an afterthought. Just my opinion -- newbie quilter so don't put too much weight in my comment!

I would mix the colors all up, red block, blue block then yellow block, dark blue block etc. But that is just my preference since there is only one row of yellow.

If you're taking votes, Option 1!! I like it!

I remember the one on the bottom - your Red Bricks, after a pattern I planned to follow which was Forest Bricks. Yeah .. my fabric is still sitting here :(

Bonnie said...

Either would work. Great way to use up leftover bits and pieces. Hum, I may need to borrow this idea at some point. (I will NOT start something new.)

Marly said...

It looks great either way but I prefer option 2; the rows look more woven.

Lynn said...

I like #1 best.

I love the first layout with the gold in the center....it pops! Love all of the scrappy deliciousness in the blocks!

Mmm, the first layout looks like FUN with the yellow blocks in the middle.

The third picture reminds me of the Forest Bricks pattern from MaryQuilts.com.

Quilters cannot be bored...so many wonderful patterns are out there!

I like Option 1. The colors sparkle more

Dar said...

I think the first one catches my eye better. The last one seems more unfinished and is waiting for more rows. Nice use of scraps either way.

Terri said...

I like option 1... like a rainbow.

Definitely prefer the first... The yellow in the middle lights up the whole quilt. To me, putting it on the bottom makes it look a bit like an afterthought. Of course the real thing may look different to the photo. I so enjoy seeing your blog popping up in my inbox...such a wonderful assortment of quilts.

Looks great! I like option 1 best.

Kate said...

Love the name! I think I like the gold row in the middle versus being at the bottom.

Melinda said...

Option 1. It looks modern. Option 2 just looks bottom heavy.
Must feel good to have used up so many scraps.

Just to confuse the issue .... you could put the yellow blocks DIAGONALLY through the quilt and then the red and blue would fall naturally on either side of the line! Denise in Canada (Take 2!)

I like Option 1 also. It has a pretty flow to it!

Liz Davis said...

Number 1! But both are very cool!

Ramona said...

Love the name of your quilt! I like option 1 better.... my eye moves nicely over that layout. Option 2 seems to stop and start. Great blocks!
