Guys I am sorry about the photos - but this is me trying some vague quilt layouts on the kitchen table and standing on a chair to get the photos. I could have cropped out all the "life' in the background but then it was too close to look quiltish if that makes sense.
I've used scrap booking paper for the circles and of course the greens will be different depending on the fabrics I use......anyway would you like to tell me which layout you like ? I think I've already decided .....................
Number one.
Number 2. (essentially the same with no hole in the middle)
No. 3
No. 4For a better idea of the actual colours have a look at the previous post
and thanks for all the help.
I like number 3 the best.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely number 1!
ReplyDeleteNo. 1 jumps out at me.
ReplyDeleteNo 1 for sure.
ReplyDeleteNumero Uno fo'shizzle!!
ReplyDeleteNumber 1...
ReplyDeleteNo 1!!!
ReplyDelete1 or 4
ReplyDeleteI too love playing with circles.
I have done the same thing with circles of coloured kindergarten squares - but they were oranges and reds, and bigger - destined to be a tablecloth.
I should look that project out again....
I like number two. Number one would be my second choice.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1
ReplyDeleteI like numero uno, but maybe you might try extending some of the outer circles into more of a sunburst pattern? Just an idea. Can't wait to see what you decide!
ReplyDeleteYep, number 1! xox
ReplyDeleteno 1 or no 4....
ReplyDeleteNumber 1
ReplyDeleteIt's 1 or 2 for me.
ReplyDelete1 and 4. Are we helping you to decide yet?
ReplyDeleteI was going with number one. It wouls appear that lots of people with equally good taste frequent your blog...
ReplyDeletePreference 1: 1; preference 2: 2. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteMe likes the grey, oh la la, has to be numero uno for me, i think it's the most eye catching for when your quilt is folded, laid out flat or has sides hanging down off the bed. Can't help think of all the different ways a quilt is viewed. Love it, love Posie
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 is my favourite, too.... but I quite like number 3.
ReplyDeleteNo 1 for me too. Scrapbooking paper? Never thought I would see the day
ReplyDeleteNumber one. I see I am not alone. I also LOVE the grey and green. I think grey was the right way to go!
ReplyDeleteNumber 1!
ReplyDeleteNumero uno fo' sho'.
ReplyDeleteNo. 2 I think!
ReplyDeleteI think 3 or 4 - I don't want to rain on your creative parade, but the first two look a bit like something you're cultivating in a petrie dish.
ReplyDeleteSo helpful I know.
One (or two).
ReplyDeletenumber 3 because number 1 looks too much like the sketch i have in my book for a new duvet cover, yep, using different shades of green circles.... I haven't seen my sketch book recently, I hope some sneaky librarian hasn't got hold of it...
ReplyDeleteI know you could take worse pics...........there fine.........just saying hi cause I know you will do what you want.......looks fun playing though.......
ReplyDeleteNo 1 for me.
ReplyDeleteI like the first one best as well.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 or 4, but I'm leaning towards 1.
ReplyDeleteI vote for number 1!
ReplyDeleteHi Jodie. Your blog keeps me laughing. I like number 1 the best.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 or 2 x
ReplyDeleteIt's a Number 2 from Princess Pyjamas.
ReplyDeleteIt's number 2 for me. Looks random but orderly at the same time!
ReplyDeleteI really like number one but number four is very yummy too, it works so well with the colours and looks like bubbles and waves in the sea. Happy quilting ;)

No. 3 gets no love, apparently. I like #1 with the wreath-ish thingie going on, but #4 really is unique. So I vote for #3.
ReplyDeleteIt's another vote for number one from me, it just has that comfortable symmetry feel that I get so stressed about.
ReplyDeletex Clare
Jod, it's number one for me!! LOVE the idea of circles... Looking forward to seeing it. D
ReplyDeleteAnother vote for #1!
ReplyDeleteIs this some kind of belated subliminal message, getting us all to vote for greens?
I love number one and I am so glad you are going with the grey it's lovely
ReplyDeleteI like number 3 best closely followed by number 1
ReplyDeleteNo1. I likes the hole in the middle.
ReplyDeleteEssence of craft blogging.
Move the pieces around, stand on a chair, take a picture, move the pieces around, stand on a chair, take a picture.... post it on the internet and await judgement. How to explain this to the non-blogging community - you just can't.
I *love* technology - cos its all about the people!
Definitely number 2, I like that one a lot...

HI Jodie, i like the first one best.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sharon
the hole sucks.
ReplyDeletenumber two looks random,
and i like random.
xo
and i dont know why i wasnt coming up blue.....thats better. and i commented first and read everyone elses later and what do you know. apparently ..i'm the only one who thinks the hole sucks jodie ! :)
ReplyDeleteOne! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd definitely go for no.1
ReplyDeleteHi there
ReplyDeleteI like nos 1, 3 and 4. I think both 3 and 4 are a little bit different which makes them more interesting. The only thing with 4 is that the effect might be lost when it is quilted up.
Not saying much about 1 as it has already had a bit positive.
Have fun
Merrilyn
number 1, without question!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely number 1!! Love the star burst feel of it.
ReplyDelete1 or 2 with 2 being my preference.
ReplyDeletenumber 1
ReplyDeleteI like number 2 - don't like the hole in the middle of one! It's going to be gorgeous whatever you choose.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1!
ReplyDeleteTwo.
ReplyDeleteFollowed by One.
Number 1!
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 or 3, but number 1 really stands out for me...has that "zing" about it...
ReplyDeleteNumber one.
ReplyDeleteNumber two is my fave, but number one is a close second.
ReplyDeleteI like number two but it depends on what look you are going for. I also like number 4 for a more casual look but prefer number two for a quilt you can display and use for any age person.
ReplyDeleteWell I love all things circles but number 1 caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteI love number one. If you won't do it then I will :)
ReplyDeleteWell, after the ten thousand other quilts that I planned ;)
My vote is one and four - can I vote for more than one????
ReplyDeleteI think this looks terrifickly yummy!
The first one. I like the third one too - it looks like something is about to happen, whereas 1 looks like something just did.
ReplyDeleteYou should call the quilt "feecked" because that is my word verification and I think it's a cool word.
#1
ReplyDeleteHello there. Brave of you to ask us for our opinions - all very varied. Of all the four variations, I prefer the character of 4 - with those gentle swirls. I also like the shapes on 3, but, for me the gaps between are too big.
ReplyDeleteSuch a good idea to take photos and then decide. I am sure whatever you decide will look good. I only hope we haven't deterred you from choosing the one which works best for you.........
My goodness this looks as close as out election!!
ReplyDeleteNo 1 for me!
def No.1 for me!
ReplyDeleteHi..Number 1 closely followed by Number 4. I'm sure that whatever you choose will look wonderful. Happy quilting!
ReplyDeleteNumber 1! The hole in the middle adds interest
ReplyDeleteI like numero uno! The center gives a resting place (point of reference?) for your eye while your mind figures out the starburst effect.
ReplyDeleteAnd it looks pretty.
I like #2.
ReplyDeleteI know this is just another one to add to the pile but I'd say number 1 as well.
ReplyDeleteI do love the randomness of you lining up the circles time after time and taking all the pictures, then asking the internet for the answer! It's almost like calling out to the universe for guidance!! LOL
it should be known as the "Universe quilt" :)
I like #1 the best ...
ReplyDeleteYvette
I like #3 best. It's more. . . unexpected.
ReplyDeleteNumber two! Number two!!
ReplyDeleteFinnish vote for number one. Btw love your blog.
ReplyDeleteOkay, my two cents..
ReplyDeleteI like number 1 the most, but it is very similar to your "Oh" mini quilt that you made. So to me the question is do you want to further explore the idea of the Oh quilt (which could be quite cool) or do you want to do something different (which I can quite understand).
If you want to avoid any whiff of repetition, I like number 4.
Ok, if I were to rank it from best to worst (even though I don't think there's a -bad- design among them)
ReplyDeleteI like them in the following order:
two, one, four, three
number one is my favorite!
ReplyDelete#1.
ReplyDeleteOr #2.
I vote for no.2
ReplyDeleteNumber 2
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 without a doubt!

ReplyDeleteNumber 1 is the best! No matter which one you shoose, it'll be magnificent I'm sure - and the grey is perfect wit the green.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 gets my vote!!!
ReplyDeleteHaven't looked through the other responses but I wonder if you'll end up with a hung parliament!!
;)
I thought number 1 until I saw #4... I think number 4...it's cool..and interesting... :-)
ReplyDelete2, without a doubt - you should use the poll widget then we could all see the results...though you might end up with a hung quilt...
ReplyDeleteI vote for 1 or 4. Actually, I like the idea you're starting to develop in 4, so maybe on the next quilt...
ReplyDeleteI like NUMBER TWO!
ReplyDeleteInitially I thought #1, but then after a second look, decided I really liked #4 much better. I love the fluidity of it. It's quite calming.
ReplyDeleteFor me, number FOUR has more action than the others. I guess it depends on what you're looking for, but I think that the arcs are most interesting. I suspect that you'll end up making a #5!

Great idea to try different layouts,I like No 4.
ReplyDeleteI like number one and number four.
ReplyDeleteWhich is not terribly helpful.
I'm late and I didn't read a single other comment. No 1 for sure. The 'negative' circle plays up the positive ones very effectively. And thanks for the tute, very cool.
ReplyDeleteNumber one, hands down! Love it.
ReplyDeleteNumber two, but see if you can do a deal with the Independents (you already have the greens..)
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea...I really like #2, it looks like the design just "happened" and not so planned out.
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea...I really like #2, it looks like the design just "happened" and not so planned out.
ReplyDelete#1, all the way.
ReplyDelete#1! It's playful and cute without being too busy (#2), spaced out (#3) or cluttered (#4)
ReplyDeleteI like number 1
ReplyDeleteI love number 2 way more than the others but I see I'm out voted!
ReplyDeleteThat'll teach me for being the last.
I like number 1.
ReplyDelete-Holly
Being a first born... naturally number one has to be my pick. Not just cause it's first though. It really is the best! ;)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is number one, followed closely by number two... (...I'm hoping that these comments are never read out-of-context!)
ReplyDeleteI really liked no 2. I have read all the other blogs and number one seems to be the consensus. Hmmmm not sure now Jodes!!!! I still kind of like number 2.
ReplyDeleteCircles are groovy :)
