    I have been wanting to try this quilt block for a long time after seeing one a friend found at a yard sale. I finally found a pattern for it in a book I had and these fabrics from my stash just leaped out at me. What do yall think. Please give your honest opinion. Should I keep on making it or should I stop now??????I call it my sunflower quilt.

    I think it looks fine. I also think with some yellow shashing from the inner flower it would look lovely as a pillow covering

    I say that if you have the determination to make an entire quilt from that block, more power to you! It looks complicated and therefore difficult.

    However, once you have a quilt's worth of blocks, you will have one super-stunning creation.
