    The neon sounds cool, can't wait to see that one!
    I don't see why you couldn't change, especially since you've changed the location from innies to outies. (teeheehee :lol: :lol: :lol: ) You've seen how I've changed my mind, haven't you. Too bad I didn't think more about it before actually making the change. Oh well, too late for regrets as all these blocks are cut out now.

    I like the look. It isn't so much neon, but compares to the other colors, it sure is BRIGHT!!! I really like it.

    Oh Flossy, that block is just beautiful! The embroidered hearts directly on the background look so perfect that they look stamped on!! I agree with Elle too, the fussy cutting on the petals was a cool choice!

    Kathy, I'm going to seriously consider what to do when I get through with the trapunto blocks. I can't wait to see your neon!

    Flossy, I love your block. The colors are beautiful and your embroidery is so neat. You did a great job and I just know your quilt will be gorgeous.

    Here's the block with the almost neon yellow floss. Doesn't look so bright with only 2 strands against the black.

    Kathy, your yellow thread looks good to me, and certainly not eye boggling. Love the applique too.
