And too, there are LOTS of other patterns to consider to show off this lovely print.
The first I think about would be a snowball pattern or variation of it.
I agree. I love the D9P. You could use the yellow for the center block only and then for the backing. I agree that the blocks would need to be larger, perhaps 5 or 6 inches. The snowball is a good one.If you add another fabric, perhaps warm wishes would work as well.
