    Found more printed panels and wanted to make them up into small quilts to be sold. "All Buttoned Up" is a mini made of precut squares on hand and leftover prairie points from another project. Used all the PP but two. It's 13x13. The flower medallion is a California Poppy and is native to Baja, CA and Oregon. Reading up on it I found it is shorter than most poppies and mostly gold color like in the panel.

    The second mini is "Spring Fling" and the flower medallion is New England Aster. It is 15 3/4" x 15 3/4". As soon as the HQ is done, they will be put up for sale. Will offer them for board members first. Hope you enjoy looking at my minis! :D

    Beautiful. The daisy center looks like it came from a vintage hankie I have. Gives me an idea.

    Very cute. The California poppy is much more orange in person. Is your fabric brighter in person?

    Thank you, Marjpf!! No, it's true to color. I think the gold poppy is different from the orange ones. Orange ones are taller. There are lots of varieties. Let me reread the article again.

    :D :D

    Thanks everyone for your nice compliments! Thanks, Rhonda! Thanks, quiltinggrannie! Glad it gives you ideas!! :D :D
