I need more coffee. I like the 3 leaf version, odd number thing, I guess.

I don't know, but it does appeal to me more. However, the other one doesn't look bad, and it would mean less work, which would give it my vote if I was the one doing it. :)Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758475602275745268.post-9791485430516184612019-08-08T19:12:03.583-05:002019-08-08T19:12:03.583-05:00I like them both... maybe they could both be in th...I like them both... maybe they could both be in the quilt?Quilter Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16870660916547202929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758475602275745268.post-12723589463862907652019-08-08T11:04:26.106-05:002019-08-08T11:04:26.106-05:00I personally like the one with more leaves.

Probably just me, and I hope I haven't ruined it for you, but I made a mystery quilt once and fabric placement ended up making bats, so I am particularly careful about unintentional bats ever since!

It all depends on what you are looking for. If you are looking for a more airy quilt than less leaves will work best; if you are looking for the traditional look than more leaves fits the order better. I love both. Less leaves mean more negative space to make beautiful quilting designs. Just think about that. Enjoy! ;^)Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772079099766225814noreply@blogger.com
