With or Without ??

I've finished making the 12 blocks for No Ugly Flowers.

I'm making my version smaller than the 

pattern in Sujata's Cultural Fusion Quilts.

Center of the pink block . . .

Several block centers . . .

Another block's center.

Given the name of the quilt project,

I've been taking photos of floral bouquets lately.

This one features colored daisies . . .

. . . which led to this version  featuring fussy cuts 

from a Westminster print over each block's center.

(I was thinking about textured edges/raw edge appliqué)

Here's the deep red block . . .

And the multi-tonal orange block . . .

And the polka dotted turquoise block.

Which one do you prefer and why?

In case it might affect your opinion,

these are the fabrics I'll piece together 

for the back and scrappy binding.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
