I am having trouble deciding on the order of colours in the quilt.
This is the colour wash of greens and blues I originally planned for the quilt. The two darkest colours are on the outer edges and the transition from navy blue to dark green travels evenly through the spectrum from left to right and the changes in value are also balanced (two darks, two lights, medium, dark, medium, two lights and two darks). I dislike the transition between the two pale blues. Am I over thinking things?
This is option two; swapping out the palest blue for yellow, creating a lightening bolt and eliminating my problem of the two pale blues next to each other.
Option 3 is two swap the three blues on the far left around to visually separate the two pale blues. The colour gradient still works but value gradient is no longer symmetrical. But i think it still balances nicely over all?
Option 4 is to swap the three greens on the far right around too so that the colour and gradient are balanced again.
I would love it if you would vote for your favourite layout.

I like two or four :)
I prefer the one with the yellow
I like the first one, so I'm no help to you at all :)
I like 1 and 3 :)
I like option 3 (but seriously any of them are striking and work!)
2 or 4 here too....leaning towards 4
I'd say 3; least keen on the one with yellow.
I really like the one with the yellow... I just like how striking it is, I suppose :)
I like 1 and 3 - though It's interesting how split people are in the previous comments. Not sure we are going to be much help!
I like the lightening bolt. But I agree, all of them work. Go with what make you happy. :)
I like the yellow
I like the top one the best. The two darks on the edges gives it that frame look.
