I've also noticed that in block 2, some people turned the flowers one way and they became sunflowers, others turned them another way and they were some other kind of flower. It's been fun.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572317733773180899.post-26718279450501202342017-06-29T23:35:52.840-04:002017-06-29T23:35:52.840-04:00Thank you, Karen.

When/if you make the baskets, will you post them on Cheri's facebook page?Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572317733773180899.post-77506990056553106792017-06-29T23:33:48.486-04:002017-06-29T23:33:48.486-04:00Thank you, Julie.

I'll have to pay attention to that the next time Cheri gives us large flowers.<br /><br />Since you made the block and didn't like the flowers, are the changes you might make in the back of your mind as you do other things? Sometimes I do that and eventually I find a solution I like.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to seeing your block when you finish and post it.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572317733773180899.post-79657858684293118112017-06-29T23:28:19.716-04:002017-06-29T23:28:19.716-04:00I agree, Janet.

Many of the same elements but placement and colors are very different.<br /><br />Blue is not one of my favorite colors but there are several shades of blue that I like. I never know what to call it -- marine, cadet,.... I suppose they could be bachelor buttons.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572317733773180899.post-29116957496496888492017-06-29T23:03:45.402-04:002017-06-29T23:03:45.402-04:00Thank you, Michelle.Thank you, Michelle.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572317733773180899.post-56211352493144498722017-06-29T22:58:26.457-04:002017-06-29T22:58:26.457-04:00Thank you, Belarmina.Thank you, Belarmina.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572317733773180899.post-2001308751524709612017-06-27T17:38:06.710-04:002017-06-27T17:38:06.710-04:00I'm so impressed!

Liberating your mind to use whatever would be a challenge.
