Here is what I had last week. I studied this picture long and hard...
...and I decided to take these darker flowered blocks out.
They were too dark for the brightness of the quilt. I sewed more hour blocks to replace the ones I took out.Then I found a pattern for sunflower blocks in Leslie Beck's book Best of the Best Quilts. I made a bunch for the fun of it...
Aren't they cute! I will need to decide what color to put in the center of the flower.
I added them to the quilt layout and I like what I see!

Like it? I absolutely adore it! You made a good move with the flower blocks. Isn't it amazing how subtle changes make such a difference? I think I'd go dark for the flower center.
I love those colors you used and those flower blocks are adoreable, cant wait to see it finished!
Those sunflower blocks look fantastic lined up across the quilt. great colours!
What a great addition! You made the perfect choice. Thanks for sharing. Happy Sewing! :o)
oh i love it...it looks so fun with the sunflower blocks
The flowers are darling! Your quilt is coming along so nicely.
Sunflowers are always so cheery.
Great addition - it gives your eye something to grab on to in the quilt. I'd use the darkest orange in your hourglass blocks for the centers! Thanks for sharing!
The flower blocks really pack a punch to your quilt. Great work!
WOW!! I really love the color and design. Those sunflowers are a perfect touch.
