Tantalizing, unseasonably warm weather here in Ohio has me ready to sprint into Spring, and this month’s theme for Quilt Block Mania, Flowers, is ready for Spring too!
Spikey Floral Block Pattern
What happens when you cross a star block with a floral block? You get this fun spikey foundation paper pieced flower!
Color and Fabric
I used Painter’s Palette Solids from PBS fabrics to create this block. Petunia (light pink) is the same pink used in my January and February Quilt Block Mania block. Raspberry (dark pink) reappears from the February block, and Island (green) and Turquoise (background) are both encore performances from the January block.
