Yes, I see the red on the close up pic. And the fabric for the centres of the flowers looks like seeds I just noticed!

The flower centers are actually cordouroy. I did cut some felt for some of the centers, but I like the cordouroy better, so I'm going to do all of them that way. And I've put batting underneath to make it not flat.

That is beautiful, I like the way you overlapped the red, that makes it even more special!

Love watching all these develop, for JoeAnn's what are the colors in this? On page 4 of these postings it looks totally different than the colors here (page 10).

Well...I looked at both pics and I think it looks closer to the pic on pg. 10..it looks more purple on page 4 than it really is, but the pic on page 10 is a little bright...just a little brighter than it really is. It is really pretty...JoeAnn did a fabulous job on that center!

Ruh Roh, k3n. I told mom "Kathryn likes her sunflowers", and her reply was "That's too darned bad! You should never have shown them to her. She's going to have to come here and wrestle it out of my poor tired hands!" :? :roll: :lol: :lol:

But I guess I am 3 for 4 on the 3D, aren't I!! But I don't plan on 3D for Esqmommy's. Of course I didn't plan on the others, either, but we'll see! LOL

Esq, I should be done sewing the centers on by the end of the week, then it's on to you.
