I was so impressed with your daffodils and iris that I went to her site and ordered those plus a couple of others. They were so intriguing when they got here that I immediately ordered several more!! I don't know when I'll find time to do them, but they look wonderful. What are your thoughts about doing them in batiks?

I agree, I used a few batiks in the Iris I think. And I really liked it. Batiks give the flowers depth and "imperfection" in color. Which they have in nature.

Don't feel overwhelmed. Start with a beginner block and small project. These projects I've shown are for intermediate and above. I would try to argue a beginning PP out of trying these as a first time project.
