Default French Rose quilt is done!

Hi ladies. This is what I have done right now. I siched in ditches, but the every panels come up like futons. do I need to tie tack at the middle or do something to stable every block?
Please advise.

First, I have to say how gorgeous your quilt is. I just love it, your flowers are so soft & pretty. As for something to stablize the blocks, how about tying it, in the center of each flower. Do you think that would be enough? By using narrow ribbon you could tie it & then make a pretty bow. I have used this technique before. It is very pretty.
Good Luck.........Cheryl

Wow Panda - this was my first thought when I woke up this morning - that I could go look at your French Roses - and it's beautiful! About the centres, I had the same idea as Sula and Cathie!

Very pretty!!!! The colors are so delicate looking. Personally, I think it looks fine, but ribbon or buttons would also be very pretty in the center. What an excellent job!!

WOW what a pretty soft looking quilt! I just love the flowers. What either Sula or Cathie said would work for what you are needing and give the flowers a "center". Let us see it again after you decide what you are going to do. Great job :thumbup:
