What would it look like make the left and right side the same as the top and the bottom? Regardless, your design is defininely a winner! :thumbup:
Thank you so much everyone for all your input - you have been so helpful (even you Gai! :mrgreen: ) And thanks for pointing out that I had the fabrics wrong - I hadn't noticed. Anyway, taking on board all that has been said and a few more hours work this morning, here is, by my reckoning, Version 13... anyone superstitious? :lol:
I really wasn't happy with the four corners of the centre four blocks of version one, plus I didn't like the medallion effect created by the centre of regular log cabins, so I've made that more roundy by making the corners of that section black and when I make this, with my own applique design, I will start the flowers' stems to radiate out from the greyish curving part.
I liked the suggestion for shaped borders and may try something with the corner sections, don't know yet...
I'm sorry but I can't do a tute for this - it would take forever and I can't spare the time, However when I've made the quilt myself, maybe I can come up with a version of it as a pattern to purchase if there was any interest. This would assume a knowledge of not only regular piecing but also Paper Piecing and Applique though... :-D
Version 13
