Tucky, Beautiful GD with a beautiful smile!

Kassaundra, Thanks! I'm learning to go with my heart on these. Fussy cuts will work.

tuckyquilter, you are so right! That's a great thing to teach a young quilter so we do not stymie their creative urges!!

I think your fabrics are great! The only thing I might suggest is since you have a couple larger prints, ie:the one on the top left blue, you might add a few more of a different line but in that medium sized print.

Maybe Watson is right, and you need an orange zinger!

I guess I ( push that envelope) often because I often hear when showing a quilt
( oh my; I never would have thought to put those fabrics - colors- prints together, but they work so well)
im pretty fearless — that doesn’t mean I don’t have a ( Comfort Zone) though. There are definitely certain colors/ prints/ designs I have trouble working with and struggle with.

I would put another yellow print in the bunch to equalize the yellow.

Debbie, I just revised the yellows and added four different tones to the mix for the sunflowers.

Thank you Everyone again for your color and pattern suggestions. The fabric selections are growing thanks to your wonderful advice. This pattern is beyond my current skill level but I think breaking it down to a BOM will work for me. Always fun to learn.
