I need some Grandmother's flower garden help....
I'm having an issue when I'm doing my English paper piecing grandmother's flower garden.
When I piece the individual flowers, I do right sides together with the petals, and everything lays flat. But when I try to connect my flowers together with two petals right sides together, my flowers never lay flat, they bend outwards and I can't flatten them.
Then I have to piece them by placing them both flat on the table, right sides down, and whip stitching them together. I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong, and why I can't stitch my flowers right sides together when I'm attaching them? Why aren't they laying flat?
