I started this as soon as I saw the tutorial for the folded Dahlia. Grasped the concept and put it aside to work on other projects. Finally brought it back out today and finished it (except for stuffing the pillow). It's far from perfect, but I like it. Just wondering if anyone else has a good tip for tacking down the folds (or am I the only one who has had a problem with that)?

I don't think the folds should be tacked down.
