Not a bad idea at all. In an 8" block, she could use her big prints to their best advantage.

I agree, the bigger prints need to be kept to bigger pieces. The designs are too good to chop up.

You have great colors to work with. Try something simple and it will be wonderful with all of these in it.

Your fabrics are beautiful. Warm Wishes is a good pattern to showcase your flowered material. Thanks for sharing. It will be interesting to see what pattern you choose. Eiltcoq.
