Oh yeah, that feels plenty cluttered to me!! But you asked......??!

Great ideas here, and good sewing, but the overall needs to be reworked, in my opinion.

it is busy, but also delightful -- it's that movement in the center of it that makes it so charming, wonderful work!

I should have also mentioned that this week, and probably much of next week, I'm minimally operating with 'anesthesia brain' and the weird effects of the muscle relaxant drug after my surgery. Please take much of what I say (or do!) with a grain of salt.....that's what my family is doing.

absolutely beautiful and fun... The collection of colors is perfect and the absence of a dark outer border is perfect... the stems and flowers in the border is a nice touch. Congrats on such a beautiful finish.

I agree with the above comment.......this sampler makes me want to dig out some orphan blocks and see if I can create a sampler from them. You did a great job on a challenge pattern.........
