Nine blocks completed - and the iffy one unpicked and remade to include more of the accent fabric and less green.  Same link as before:

@fajita I like how you cut @Efemera 's fabric to highlight those blooms! I've paired a couple fabrics with hers but haven't picked out a block pattern yet.
US to UK, brought all the fabric and yarn with me

@Efemera I like how you did a heart on hearts. I've been looking at lots of heart block ideas for @RJR_38 's fabric

I love Pearl’s block - I almost didn’t recognise her fabric! As for Brenda’s who doesn’t love a bit of Tula - never would have thought of pairing it with a Batik but it really works.

I’ve finally pulled fabrics and cut everything out for Brenda’s fabric so I will try and get that sewn today.

It has been a really interesting challenge using other people’s fabrics. I love the Batiks for example and have lots of Batiks I could put with them but have found the fact they are multi coloured a real challenge for my brain
