flower panel
I bought the panels of these flowers with the intent of making the "big quilt block" pattern.
I've run into a bit of an issue that I realized early on, but decided to forge ahead.
The fabric the blocks are on was warped. When I cut out the blocks, they weren't square (or even rectangular). So I had to cut off the green frame that was around each block.
I had calculated this into my strip lengths, and of course, I had already cut and sewn them all together (at least for the purple flowers).
I still have to wait for the blue fabric to do the blue flowers ... but here's what I have so far. Not quite the pattern I wanted, but at least it's pretty!
If someone has layout ideas I'd be happy to see them!
