ooc, would you use your second attempt in a quilt, or is it still too bulky to work well? Because I think a quilt of those Dahlias would be stunning.

Thanks.
Hi, I don't think I would make a quilt out of even the second dahlia because even tho it uses alot less fabric you still can feel the weight of all the folds just in the flower area so your quilt would have definitely heavier spots in it. It would be interesting to figure out a way to use it as one tho.

Thanks for looking,
