I would go with other florals and bumble bees and lady bugs. Cute caterpillars and honeysuckle with humming birds or hibiscus with humming birds.

[QUOTE=quiltingsupport;6202696]I think I just might go for a quilt with a rose theme. Each block having a new rose design. Thanks everyone. What a great idea.

I totally agree with this.

what abour turning it into a throw pillow to go with the quilt? just make it like you would the quilt with borders and quilting then turn it into a pillow. especially if the quilt will be a bed quilt.

It's gorgeous. I would probably put 1 or 2 borders on it and make a wall quilt so all can admire it.

It is pretty, make a pillow, or more blocks like it for a different quilt

That's an excellent idea! I think that would work really well.

When I'm finished making the blocks, hopefully I'll have enough left over fabric to try that.
