The Square for May

The Inspiration

I would like to do an Flower appliqué quilt. I was thinking it would be really neat if everyone just did their own type of flower.  I would like a modern twist to them. You can center it, put it off to the side, it can be a bunch of flowers or whatever you can come up with.  The applique could have a raw edge or a finished edge. Just be creative. For those who would like a pattern you can go here.

I would like them to have bright bold colors and a white back ground.
 (no kid fabric please bugs trains butterflies etc.)  
I really like the type of fabrics that is in the top picture.

Square size 12.5
