Found it! It's from a line called "Remember Me". Here's a link to the best price from my quiltshops.com search:

Well, not really! I just happened to put in the right search words on quiltshops.com. I tried the words blue, red, and gold since those are the flower colors; tan for the background; and flowers for the design. That combo didn't work, so I omitted tan and it came up at 3 shops. I was going to try 5 or 6 searches and then quit. I wasn't able to find a floral print of mine, so I took a stab at Caroline's.

Sometimes to kill a little time I put in search words like scenic, geometric, palm trees, or mountains just to see what comes up. Color combos like orange and purple can bring up interesting fabrics. And I have to give my credit card to DH and say "here, hold this for me" so the poor thing doesn't get burned up.

Can you tell I don't get out much? LOL!
