    I like the tote bag idea. They are really beautiful and would make a perfect accent for the tote bag.

    I think pillows or table toppers are great ideas. Your folded dahlias are just beautiful.

    It sounds to me like you have alot of Christmas gifts all most done. They are gorgeous. I don't know anyone who wouldn't love them as a pillow or what ever.

    GORGEOUS! When my kids were born in '82 & '83, my MIL made them each a quilt with those blocks. Each block was a different colorway. When they were toddlers, I would put the quilts out on the floor and say "Jump on the Blue....jump on the Red.",etc etc. It's how I taught them colors, and people were amazed they knew their colors at such a young age. (Sorry for going on about it, but I was flooded with memories when I saw your pix)

    Might look nice as the "pocket" on the outside of a Quillow [quilt that tri-folds into a pocket, thus becoming a pillow while 'storing' a quilt - great for sofa, dorm room, RV, even decor pillows on a bed that might need an extra layer sometimes]

    They'd be beautiful sewn together like a Grandmother's Flower Garden design. Wow, they're so pretty. Nice work.
