    I've been playing with ideas. Once I practice I'll have to do them quickly because I'll get bad again right away. :lol:

    This is an idea from this website: http://www.daystyledesigns.com/index.htm

    Maybe it'd work in the open blocks, then do a stipple in the others?

    This one is incompete. I'd have to get the petals smoother...and do a better job at spacing.

    Will this make it too girly? :|

    Karla...here is what I do...I find a design that I like. It could be a stencil or a clip art file, coloring book...just anything. Then trace it, blow it up to the size you would like. Then...trace it onto vellum or tracing paper. Pin the paper to your quilt top making sure the design in exactly where you want it to end up and then SEW OVER THE PAPER on the lines. Tear the paper off when you are done...people think you are a rock star....Easy breezy...

    Editted to say...your quilts are gorgeous by the way!
