Thanks so much for your help - you went above and beyond. I've bookmarked the sites you gave me, and I'll reassess what I have. I won't need to buy a whole lot more fabric IF the remaining blocks don't require a whole uncut 12.5 X 12.5 square, so I'll have to plan accordingly. Again, thank you!

I have been doing some fabric searches for Fresh Flowers....was there a particular one that you were wanting more of? Here is one http://webstore.quiltropolis.net/stores_app/Browse_dept_items.asp?Shopper_id=184048357421840&Store_id=701&page_id=17 and http://www.stitch-n-frame.net/cgi-bin/Store/store.cgi?cart_id=9852072.22801.s0&product=ModaMisc&productid=Fabric_FRES6&keywords1=ModaMisc&sales=0&lastmenu=

I was reading your other comments...and suggest that you find some tone on tones in similar colors....so that these pretty fabrics will stretch a bit further....have you looked for any more of them? I am searching all the time for stuff I have seen and did not get enough of, or just want more of...

Thank you for the suggestion. I was able to find a little more fabric on eBay, but I like your idea of tone on tone. I'll keep my eyes open.

Did you use various pieces of your Fresh Flowers Fat Quarter Bundle for your background fabric pieces. I LOVE the look!

Yes, I did - though I'm running out and we have many blocks to go. I just bought a yard of one of them (found on eBay), but it might not be enough depending on the construction of the rest of the blocks. I plan to use a plain white for the sashing - one that matches the white in the prints.

Me, too! I can't wait to see how all the blocks come together. It's such a mystery, and I have to be patient for each new month - LOL
