I haven't been following your mare stare thread, but it must be what happens when my cows are ready to calve (but, horses are more intense, no doubt!)
Anyway .. I have been thinking about your sunflowers .... you must find them rather startling, but since I am so old, startling is a good thing, in my mind <g> ... many have commented on them, and maybe you aren't comfortable with them? I was wondering .... they all seem to be in the same place in the blocks ... so <g> since you are going to be making MORE blocks ... what would happen if you moved them to different spots in the next blocks .... OR <g>
I thought maybe you could put all the SF blocks together for an accent and build the rest of the form around those ... however many there are ... I am just intrigued at all that you have shown!
On my way to start pulling florals to start cutting strips ... I want a quilt like yours!
And, have been looking at everyone's sewing rooms... have to shop for cabinets and build myself a ladder! Am so enjoying this list and contributors!
