String Quilt Possibilities

I've laid out some of the string blocks for DS's quilt on the guest bed...I love the black sashing and red cornerstones-I'm just not sure yet about the block arrangement. Here are three possibilities. This is interesting because of all the movement behind the sashing.
This is kind of dramatic.

What do you think?

I simply loved the first one because it was so simpel and easy. ( I hope my english is good)Your colour combination is so beautiful and you have used my favorite colour black and red. Good luck with your finish...

I would take no. 1 because it is peaceful and predictable. Someone else could see that as a minus, but I don't.

Oh, that is hard. I like the second and the third. Can't decide.

I like them all but the first is my fave, it reminds me of an Amish Roman Stripe I made for youngest DS about 20 yrs.ago!
Looks as if #1 gets the most votes so far............

In case my opinion matters, I like #3 best, then #1 and then #2.
