I bought these blocks and jelly rolls from a lady, so I don't know the name of the pattern. She called it Shabby Chic flowers. They are applique but you sew a 1/4" from the edge and it frays when washed. I used they jelly roll for the boarders and on the back. This was the first time I did feathers on a really quilt (not a practice piece). I'm really happy with how it turned out, I may have to make another one.
