How do you attach the flowers together to make a runner? Love the tutorial. Great Idea!!!

Sorry about that Dollyo, this is what happens when you have done the same pattern several times. You forget that not everyone else has....you make as many of the 4 circle sections as you want. The sections are then joined by reversing the direction that the last 2 side petals are sewn. I stitch these ones together facing the back and then simply stitch close to the edge with matching thread so they lay flat. Pictures to follow.

For summer, white petals - big yellow button or many smaller yellow buttons or applique center for daisies. Gold petals, brown center for black-eyed Susans. The possibilities are endless. Just added another project onto my already lengthy todo list.

Tks Tartan for a fantastic tute & I love these. I see you believe in the KISS principle - Keep It Simple Sweetie.......
The runners are simple but beautiful !!
