Not a bad idea at all. In an 8" block, she could use her big prints to their best advantage.

You have great colors to work with. Try something simple and it will be wonderful with all of these in it.

Your fabrics are beautiful. Warm Wishes is a good pattern to showcase your flowered material. Thanks for sharing. It will be interesting to see what pattern you choose. Eiltcoq.
