Thanks so much!
the very center is a new Kaufman [I think?] batik fussy cut center that I had actually first cut as center of block #8 but changed my mind because the inner petals were another polka dot. When I finished the flower and hearts and had only the center to do, I tried it out and thought wow - this pulls the green leaves and flower colors together - it just 'worked' :-D
The petals are also fussy cut out of a big piece of large tulip fabric I had hoped one day to make a large floral block quilt out of - I have several large floral prints and saw a quilt in a keepsake quilting catalog once that is one of those thousands of quilts to make someday..... [do we get to continue quilting in heaven or.....?] anyway that fabric is Seattle Bay LAVI-06 konabay. I used the center of one of those tulips as center in block #8. I'm finding soooo many uses in large prints for this quilt - awesome!
