Quilt in a Day forum had a swap years ago. I joined the swap and got mine hand quilted last winter. I love it. We machine, raw edge appliqued each layer of the rose. We trimmed the back on each layer of the rose. It needs to be trimmed since the finished rose would be thick and hard to quilt. I haven't used my quilt yet, but am told when it's washed the raw edges ruffle and become soft. This pattern is still online on several sites.. Google French rose quilt pattern and you will find it including pictures. Some are free.
