    I want to make a sunflower fussy cut block but cant decide what kind of blocks to build around it. Any suggestions or ideas? the block is 12"

    Can you provide a picture of the fabric?

    First block I thought of was a Dresden Plate block

    If you dont want to detract from the Sunflower print, would I use the background colors for something like snowball blocks and set the sunflowers on point somehow??
