I like what you did with the smaller side flowers. They pop in a very visual way. The top and bottom half blocks moving the "flower" center down so it is whole works well too. A lot of creativity as well as work has gone into this top.

I'm thinking it is going to be bias binding, which I've never done before, so that will be a first as well. I was considering facing it but I folded squares around the papers so some places it is a little more than a 1/4 in the back. Of course, I need to quilt it first!
