I like this block, though I'm not certain I like the fabrics I chose for it. I was slightly constrained since I told my 5-yr-old that I would use her 'favorite' flower print in this block because it had only been used in one block before this one. I'm not sure that it turned out exactly like I wanted, oh well. I did make a conscious decision to make the four corner squares white instead of another color like in the RTQA tutorial. I like the very outsides of my blocks to be as plain/background as possible, I think that will mostly help how I try to put them together.
I did this all today, so perhaps there is hope I'll finish these more or less on time. I will finish them though, even if I have to during Fall Break. And I have no idea when they'll make it into a finished quilt... I have lots of WIPS... oh yes, I was going to blog some more of them, maybe soon.
Anyone else regret choosing a fabric they used? Or wish they would have switched around fabric location? Or perhaps allowed your kid to help you plan a block?
So pretty! I think the fabrics and colours look great together. You and your daughter did well!
