Start of my Art Noveau Quilt
#101
Okay just my humble opinion on that block, I have learned that a lot of the time those little "uglies" add the sparkle and interest to a quilt. Sometimes I dont particularly like a block but it is just what the quilt needs. I think as long as the colors are used through out the quilt it will work.

Here are 2 more. this time used some of the original Batik and some I had of little snippets. Some pieces are just so small.
The three headed flower has been the most difficult so far as all the petals are separate. Enjoy

This is the easy part for me, the hand sewing may be a challenge. :D
