ube quilting--Go to www.pinterest.com and search French rose quilt. There are plenty completed quilts to see. There are pictures of the patterns pieces--you could make a pattern from the pictures. The rows of the flower doesn't have to be exact. When I swapped blocks on QIAD, everyone's rose wasn't exactly the same My quilt is beautiful.

Thank you for the info o this quilt.

Whenever you want to see an image, Google.com is a good way also. Input the question like "French Rose", click to search and then choose "Images" from the list of choices. I am always amazed at what pops up.

I've made 2 different ones . quilted it on my domestic quilt .my machine handled both w/no trouble

I have to say I have never seen this pattern before....but if I were to do it, I think I would do from bottom up, trimming as I go, to eliminate bulk, then applique to background, then again trim background out too...hmm, maybe that's the actual instructions? Don't know, as this one is a first for me!

I saw a French Rose Quilt completed at a local quilt show and they used fleece between each layer. They cut the rose layer and a matching layer of fleece and it was magical! Each rose layer popped! The layers were sewn to a background, batting added with a backing and quilted When completed the roses looked beautiful.

Was it fleece or was it flannel? I've seen them done that way with flannel. Kinda fascinated about the effect fleece would have.
