I just found this last night and WOW!!! She also has her Florabund BOM there that was in the McCall's Quilt Designer contest.

I think I will scrap my ideas about a floral applique design I've been thinking of and do this one.

love it...put this in computer favorites to do later....I am doing the houses BOM and the stars BOM here on the board

I have just went to the site and downloaded the patterns thus far.

I downloaded everything last night.

Just be aware that she is asking that the center block design be purchased but, of course that can be left out. I have no idea how much it is as I haven't looked at her shop yet.

these blocks are awsome. This is going to be my next project. Thanks for posting the link.

I love her blog. Erin is very talented. Her starch tutorials are what got me hand appliqueing. I hope that she branches out and does more than birds and flowers in the future because she has massive , massive talent.

I've used the starch and freezer paper template method on several things now, learned it from the Sharon Schamber network.

I am going to try Sharon's other method of using disolving paper to turn under the applique edges and you just leave it in. It just disolves to fibers when washed. I just received my order of 5 yards from Sharon's website.

I am working on this right now. The center block pattern is $10.00. I just received it last week. I'm having problems hand appliqueing so I'm doing a blanket stitch on my machine. I like how it's turning out.

I just ordered the center. :)

I'm going to hand applique, it gives me something to take with me to work on at breaks and downstairs in the family room.

Where did you find the Floribunda BOM? I was all over the site and didn't see it. Of course, I am an old geezer and probably was looking right at it. Ann in TN
