    I think this fabric is great for a 4 patch posey. I agree about the sashing. You chose well here!

    Oh, please do show us Wackeroo!!
    Is this a spin-off from the 4PP?
    Thanks!

    Thank you all so much.

    I had intended to sash the blocks as many of you suggested, but, though I like the fabric very much I have decided to save it for a different project and find another fabric for the 4 patch posy. I know some of you have made this design with ease and great success and those lovely quilts led me to want to make one.

    I so appreciate all your conmments. Off to the LQS to search for the perfect fabric.

    I don't think it's busy at all. Once you add sashing in it'll be absolutely breathtaking!

    I absolutely LOVE your blocks. Have you considered putting white strips between the blocks with maybe a little green square at each intersecting corner?

    I totally agree, sashing between the blocks will look like pathways through a beautiful flower garden!

    I like your blocks, to me they have a more romantic floral look, quite lovely. I'd continue. They'll all work together with sashing.

    Beautiful fabric! I totally agree - use a solid color sashing and your quilt will look great!
