My flower is the blue & green flower on the far right. The rows are grouped in order of assembly. The flower row on the left was done first and mine was done fourth.
When I started this row, I originally wanted to do a Dresden Plate, but I never got the pattern printed before I left work last Friday. So, I winged it! My cutting mat had lines for 30 degrees and 45 degrees. I was going to have nine petals, each at a thirty degree angle, but when I put the fabrics together, I didn't like it. I think the petals turned out to look like a daisy. I love daisies and I love this row!

Looks good, Bobbi! So you have a cutting mat. Do you also have one of those rotary cutters? I got to borrow the teacher's a couple times in class and I loved how quick and easy cutting fabric became. I'd say that is my least favorite part of sewing, all that darn cutting of fabric and patterns.
Hey Jessica! Yes, I have a cutting mat and rotary cutter. It makes all the difference in the world for quilting. I wouldn't even know how much extra time it would take to do this with only scissors! I got my mat and rotary cutter in high school for my first project. I use Olfa cutters... I know others like Fiskar brand. In 1993 that was the only one that our small fabric store in our small town sold. It came in a packet with a long 5 inch ruler too. Last year I got a big mat and I LOVE IT!
gorgeous flowers!
