Hi Suz,
If this is the pattern you are talking about I cut the three different size roses and then stitched 1/4 inch from the edge on the largest one then put next smaller one on top of that and again stitched 1/4 inch from the raw edge and then added the last smallest one and stitched 1/4 inch away from raw edge again. This runner has been washed many time and still holding up great. This was so fun to make.
If this isn't the pattern you are talking about - I apologize.
