Layout

I've been working some more on my girl baby quilt. I decided to mix in another block. It's very simple, just a four patch with a border using the same background fabric as the other blocks. I thought a simpler block might enhance the overall design a bit. But now I'm stuck on the right layout for the blocks-would really appreciate input from any readers out there! I haven't finished all of the blocks yet so visualize with me...

First option-alternating blocks, simple and sweet? Or too plain?


Second option-four patches in the middle, gives the eye a place to rest in the middle...but is the border to busy?

I'm hoping to get this top done soon so I can move on to other piecing-always thinking of new tops to start!
