Drunkard's Path quilt along: block arrangement ideas. Help me decide! Which do you like best?

And the winner is....upper right hand corner.
This is quilted in Anne Bright's In The Moment block.
Pieced using the Miny Moons Template by Pattie Stevens of TheQuiltingHouse.com
A double border to increase the length was the right answer, and I knew it. It's now generously sized for both length and width, and when I start quilting it tomorrow, I will have no regrets.
I love that it has all those quarter-circle scraps left over from Discothèque.
This quilt is made from 70% vintage fabrics. The design was inspired by the 1930s Art Deco furniture and this pattern was redesigned from the original Drunkards Path pattern.
It is quilted with 200g batting and the reverse is 100% pure cotton.
Size: 230 cm x 200 cm
The pillow which won me Electra Cruiser in Riley Blake Design challange. Thought that I posted the photo long time ago... seems I didn't.
This is a block I made for myself for this quarter of the 3x6 bee in order to test the design I planned to use for my partners' blocks. My colours were orange and yellow. I was very happy with how this bock turned out and used the same design for my partners' blocks. The only change I made was to put the blocks with the coloured background on the bottom half (not that it really matters, you can only tell the bottom from the top if there is a directional print like the elephants in this block.)
I made this block using the tutorial here at the blog Needles and Spatula. It was very easy (no pinning required and lots of room for error.) The hardest part was deciding how to arrange the squares. I thought that this arrangment would work well with the wonkiness of the circles and was different from the usual. I loved the result so much that I now have a plan to make an entire quilt of blocks like these using cool-toned shot cottons.
Another possible design for my next quilt!

Oh my gosh....what a beauty. This is stunning. I love everything about it, and the goodies that were sent with it.
Thank you sweet whimsical partner!
Lots of pins are needed for curved piecing - it's very similar to setting a sleeve on a garment.

MichelleSews' colours for this quarter of the 3x6 bee were pink orange and yellow. She asked for bright blocks. This is a great colour combination -- so happy!

Schnookie and Boomer gave me a fabulous custom bundle from Fabricworm for my birthday; looking at the stack of blacks, reds, aquas, and apple greens I heard the fabric tell me "Make us into a circle quilt!" Okay then, circles it is! I added a few prints (the trees and the line-drawing city print, which are all from the V&A line from a few years ago) and then dragged out the Accuquilt cutter. Boy, does that make cutting a drunkard's path waaaaaay easier than templates. In the time it would have taken me to quit whining about having to use a template, I had four blocks already pieced!

crazy lighting - but why you don't wash wool batting quilts in the washing machine and dryer! duh!!!

Finished! Made as part of the recent drunkard's path quiltalong, though with my own setting using plain squares in addition to the pieced blocks.

Here is what I have so far. I am thinking about using the fabrics as one more set of DP blocks. I am already feeling the pain of having to make 120 more DP blocks.

meg_norrell's colours for this quarter of the 3x6 bee were gray, green and white. I thought that the Amy Butler polka dot went really well with the gray tones.

ladmquilter's colours for this quarter of the 3x6 bee were blue, gray and green. She asked for a gray background (I used Kona medium gray.) The feeling of the block really changes a lot when white isn't used for background.

Here are my finished blocks for the drunkards path quilt along. I've ironed embroidery designs in the center of each flower and must get to work on embroidering now so I can put the top together! I blogged about this at craftytokyomama.wordpress.com/2011/11/22/persimmons-and-p...
i sent it last week, uploaded & forgot to put them in the group, but here's my sampler! i did a couple of blocks in blocks, as well, and there's one on the back.
