I love this block. Thanks for sharing.

The pattern is called "picking petals" and it is by carried away quilting co.

I am going to look this one up, beautiful block, I am finding inspiration for my next quilt this morning!

Thank you!!!! It is adorable. I think it is going on my list.

What a great quilt block...your friend must be ambitious, especially if she is a new quilter.

Thanks. I too love the pattern. Will make beautiful spring pillows. Is charm pack friendly - good way to use those charm packs that I fall in love with, buy and then don’t know what to do with.

I like the larger size possibility.

Wouldn't that work with a fussy cut center instead of the 16 patch. I can see lots of great possibilities. Thank you.

I love the block as well. I've been playing around with it and came to the conclusion that a quilt using it needs sashing, otherwise it is too busy. Here's a 2x2 layout using sashing:

I agree it would make a great pillow pattern and also set that way would need sashing. I have to wonder what it would look like on point though -- probably still need a background sashing!
