Thanks!

I learned this quickie technique many years ago while in Florida and it is called "Mo-Mo's Star" - have no idea who Mo-Mo is!!!

its beautiful, I think Id like to make one. Id do it as a quilt as you go, and a sandwich of 2 circles and batt, (circle 1 - rite side out, layer batt shape on it, 2 circle rite side to batt, sew around outeredge, leave opening, turn, press, close.) Make a batch of finished circles first. Then, find the hex size to fit in the circle, (you can do all this on paper first to make a patt). Then just sew back to back, in this pic the backs are all white, in rows, press open and sew down the petals - I think that would work and it would be done when you got to the size you wanted sharet

Look: if we "open" the white petal, what results is not a circle...
It seems to me that we need to begin with a "flower 6 petal" shape...
What do you think???
