Isn't it spring yet? I've had enough of this stuff, and it's only the middle of January!
I pulled out every orange scrap I had, which turned out to be more than I thought...but then again, I am a brights girl, it shouldn't have been much of a surprise. In retrospect, I probably should have used more of some and less of others.
I had this flower image in my head, but I'm not sure it translated as well as I hoped. Just not sure about the white prints...but then again, second-guessing myself defeats the purpose of improvisation, doesn't it?And maybe the fact that I'm questioning it means I've pushed myself outside my comfort zone? Which again, is the whole point of this exercise.
Now to go clean up the mess.

I see the flower. I really like this block it reminds me of spring and sunny days.
I think it came out great!
The second I saw it, I thought flower, and I think it's partly because of the white prints. Looks like a flower explosion, this one rising higher than the rest. I like it!
The white defines the flower very clearly, I think! Well done and much needed during the wintertime, indeed! The big dots in the outer fabrics tells me stories of lovely fragrances and the dots coming from looking too much into the sun *lol*.
Thanks for sharing, even if you have been in doubt. I think the comments so far must have told you otherwise :)
way to step out! i'm loving it.
I love it. The white is great around the border -- it contrasts just enouch, and the flower blossoms from the center. It's great!
I think I have to agree with everyone else! This just knocks my socks off - what vivid colors and happiness! Great antidote to winter. And I love those dots, especially the over-lapping ones. Tres cool! I think this one's a winner.
i love the colors and they move inward toward the pink! nice kate, your quilt makes me think tomorrow's high will be something above 0 degrees!
I love your block. What great fabrics. I would like to raid your fabric stash. From the looks of this you have some wonderful fabrics. I will have to try this. Thanks for sharing
I like it!
I think it's wonderful. Would be great with a bunch of similar blocks too.
A Jan Mullen rose! It works, I like it. :)
I love this block; it reminds me very much at a fabric I'm using right now on my new quilting project.
