Sorry, gcathie, I forgot to include where I was from -- Oakland, CA.
Thanks for the kind words about my wall quilt (thanks, too, to everyone else!). :D
I've enclosed a close-up shot of the flowers. Both the leaves and the lowest flower petals are backed by thick, stiff interfacing. Then I found large buttons to match for the centers. The "stitching" around the leaves and petals is actually just a fine-point black marker: - - - - -
Except for the interfacing, it was made entirely from stash.
Don't tell anyone, but there's a bit of crumpled tissue paper under the lower half of the flowers to keep them from tipping forward....
