We did one for a church raffle several years ago. We opted for the flat finish as opposed to a scalloped one and used half flowers at the end of the rows to make it come out right. Hope this is of some help to you.
Then we added the binding after we quilted. It was all hand done and took forever!

Norah is who helped me with Grandmothers Garden, she made one that is Beautiful, her handwork is wonderful and very neat, I think if you typed in the search box, Grandmothers Garden it will pull her pictures up.And then you could PM her and she is very gracious and friendly with her advice and wisdom.
