Qt is very nice because it's solid on most platforms if you plan to port, but I have noticed that Gnome can't do some of the most basic things like scaling fonts according to the X settings in Qt apps. I've used FLTK quite a bit, and it's fairly nice for small apps. There are a few problems and the development on FLTK is pretty spotty - I prefer Qt and the tools it comes with (designer, qmake ,etc). You should probably get some examples and see what suits you best.

Glade gives you a "drag and drop" widget set:

IMHO that's nice because GTK tends to live on both gnome and KDE.
while QT is pretty KDE centric.
But if you just care about KDE, QT might be the way to go.
