Decisions, Decisions

I finished the quilting and have faced the "Pen Pal" quilt I showed you a couple of weeks ago.  Now it's time to sew on the copper squares.


I was going to sew them on "straight on", as in this picture.





Then my sister came to visit and suggested sewing them "on point" as in this picture.  I like them both, but am leaning toward the "on point".  What do you think?  I'm also looking for a name. All I can think of is "Copper Shibori".

I've linked up with "Off the Wall Friday".  Go see what everyone is up to.

I think the On Point has more character. Either way, it is lovely.

I actually prefer your original layout. I like the way the circles are partial obscured. It adds a little more mystery and doesn't feel as glaring.

I agree with Gwyned - I prefer the straight on orientation. The ones on point get lost. In the first layout I like how the squares cut into the circles, creating a secondary pattern.

I liked straight.

I definitely like the straight on better. It's more interesting.

I like the look 'on point'.

My preference goes to the square one, the Original one.
