I want to make a 4 patch posy. the fabric is 11 inch repeat. I think the fabric may be too busy for a 4 patch posy. PLEASE be honest and let me know what you think of the 2 blocks I have made.

Personally I like it. It reminds me of looking through a kaleidoscope! It is busy, but I think that what makes it cool, and I think if you use a solid sashing it would tone down the busy-ness a bit. Its going to be a beautiful quilt!

What beautiful fabrics! I agree that sashing between the blocks will set them off and will give the eye a ressting place. Love the fabrics. It reminds me of a beautiful garden. All you need are some "pathways in the flower beds".

I think you will love it after u sash it, i have made 4 of them and find that some blocks i just do not like no matter how i turn them and others i love. Keep making them, i think you will be pleased with the finished quilt
