    lol... I also have beige walls in my bedroom. They aren't light beight, they are more like the darker beige in the quilt.

    The block is in EQ6 and it's called Sugar Bowl. I knew I wanted big pieces of the floral and was scrolling through blocks looking for something to use as more of a background block or setting block just to go around the floral. Nothing too complicated and that one caught my eye with the potential to make a secondary pattern when put together. I bet a lot of blocks would work with it as it is a simple design overall.

    If you don't mind my asking, what were your yardages? A guess would be good enough for me. I have some fabric I scooped up yards of a line and this pattern is a good idea starter for me.

    The yardage from my order is:
    For HSTs
    2 yd MARCUS COTILLION ROSE BOUQUET SPA (large floral)
    1 yd MARCUS COTILLION COUNTRY TOILE TAN
    1 yd MARCUS COTILLION COUNTRY TOILE SPA

    For Sugar Bowl
    1 yd MARCUS COTILLION ROSEBUD SPA BLUE
    1 yd MARCUS COTILLION PADDOCK PAISLEY SPA
    1 yd MARCUS COTILLION SCRATCH DOT TAN
    1 yd MARCUS COTILLION SCRATCH DOT COFFEE

    Border
    3 yd MARCUS COTILLION PAISLEY STRIPE

    I just thought that I need fabric for binding. I always forget it and need to start remembering to get 1 1/2 yd or so for that. I have bits and pieces left, some more than others, that I'll do pillows with.
