And I have this idea to attach them to a 15" block then add sashing between the blocks - something like in the photo below - the fabric is only an example not what I intend using in the final product.

So I am asking all the hexagon experts do you think that my idea of appliquing the large flowers onto a background block then putting sashing between the blocks will work.
I am open to all suggestions and ideas as to how to go about this please.
I posted earlier but have another suggestion. Since the center of your flowers are white, you might consider appliqueing them to a pastel solid color, so they will not look like donuts. (Perhaps Ivory or very pale yellow, etc.) Then you could choose a soft matching granny print for sashing.
