    I made this trip around the world quilt top but it did not turn out as the great quilt top it should have. I made a second one thinking that by seperating the florals thinking that would fix it. But they did not turn out with a wow factor as this fabric should have been. Any info on working with florals would be greatful.

    They look good to me
    I like blue and I love blue roses

    Sometimes what we visualize in our heads doesn't look as awesome in real life.
    Both quilts are really pretty.

    OMG - I can see your delima.....no other choice but to get rid of them. I'll do you a favor and take them off your hands so just box them up and pm me and I will send you my address. lol

    No, I think they are both gorgeous quilts and would be proud to have either one. Great job!
