Considering....

Tumbler layout options:
This is the original stack of 1200 3" tumblers.
My mother in law wanted to start sewing right away.
She started with a 1/2/1/2 configuration.
The pattern  creates white strips in a way.
Then she laid out this: 
1/2/1/2/1
 2/1/2/1/2
which looks more scrappy and she settled on it.
I am considering my options here.
I still haven't decided how I will configure my tumblers.


p.s. giveaway still going on, comment on this POST.

The second one, use the secon one. It gives more to the eye to see.

The same day u first showed these tumblers I was also cutting out hundreds & hundreds of blue 3" tumblers. Then I spent some time in eq & decided to add some white creating a diamond design. Can't wait to see what u decide on...

I can't imagine cutting 1200 pieces, but I like the second layout the best!

I like the second lay out. Looks great. The first is nice but the second is a bit more pleasing to the eye. Love all the bright colors too.
