Great job on a pattern that's always in the back of my mind. Hope it's a winner!

That's a pattern I've always shied away from because I thought it was too challenging. How would you rate it difficulty-wise?

Topper1,
Beautiful! The Giant Dahlia is the whole reason that I got started in quilting. I loved the one I had seen and decided that I wanted to learn to do that. I have yet to make one but seeing yours gives me hope...... I'm betting it receives high marks! Wonderful job!!
