I have to laugh at this because both of these are happy accidents. The bright one for Poker Diva was going to be Ocean Waves, except I didn't do my math right and figured out way too late that an F8 isn't large enough to provide for all the pieces I'd need. So I crossed my fingers and hoped to salvage without too much embarrassment.
The Primitive Tulip was a plan B block. I'd intended to do another Y-seam block but after it was partially assembled, I figured out I'd cut the pieces for a 15" block, not a 12".
Lesson learned: don't cut someone else's fabric after midnight! :lol:
