I brought the top 2 corners together, sewing a seam and turning it right side out and pressing it. This makes a point all finished. I followed Edyta Sitars directions. She has a u tube video. After I sewed all the petals together making a circle, I appliqued my piece onto the background using invisible thread in a zig zag stitch very skinny. It was so skinny I didn't have to change my machine foot. A bit of the stitch goes on the applique and a bit onto the background fabric. Hope this helps. You can see my quilt by following my profile and threads started. It's call Dresden Blooms.
