My cousin made one years ago and it is in a wooden hoop. I have it on my wall. Gives me inspiration as I know I would not have the patience to do this.

I haven't figured that one out yet. I'll look on line and if I can't find directions I'll have to experiment!

Dahlia are my all time favorite flower that blocks looks complicated but it sure is pretty.]I used the tutorial from Dungeonquilter to make the folded dahlia block. Now I just have to make a pillow out of it. Maybe a Mother's Day present for mom.http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-116058-1.htm[/quote]
