Obviously the patterns calls for 3/8" hexies but I don't have that size on hand, however, I do have 1/2" hexies so that is what I used and they fit perfectly.
Blocks 16 & 17 are named Square Peg in a Round Hole.
Again the applique has been stitched onto a pieced block.
Block 18 is named Star in a Star
A perfectionist would redo the center circle because the flower design is not centered perfectly, I don't claim to be a perfectionist.
There are a lot of layers in this block. I have tentatively thought I might possibly hand quilt this quilt so I've cut away some of the layers on the backside as I appliqued the layers for ease in hand quilting.

Beautiful fabrics and appliqué. You have an extensive blue stash! Gail at the cozy quilter
I do like mixing quilting with some EPP and hand sewing. Love your fabrics too.
Such lovely background fabrics you are using in these blocks. They really make those pretty blues pop.
All of the blocks are lovely in your blue scraps. I really like those square peg in a round hole blocks. Good thinking to cut away the excess in prep for hand quilting.
