Just finished this one. One of the kind ladys on this site supplied the pattern out of an old quilting magazine. I again thank her. This was fun to do and I made it reversable also. It mesasures 30" across. Thanks for looking

I stippled the center. First time and I like it.

Wow, that's really beautiful! I love the tan Fusions for the background, it's perfect and your machine embroidery is very well done. :thumbup:

Which magazine is the pattern in? It's a beautiful pattern and I would like to make it with pink flowers.

busygranny 02-21-2011 01:25 PM

Thats what I want to do, a pink one also. Think trhat would really be pretty. Its Quilters World, Oct. 2010 issue.

I have this magazine! And I've always wanted to try and make one. Was it hard to do? You did a really good job. It's beautiful.

It is gorgeous!!!! I still have a lot of practice to do with machine applique.

busygranny 02-21-2011 03:00 PM

No was not hard.Very easy. The hardest part was cutting out 120 petals. LOL!!! I plan to make another in pinks. The butterfly was an error. Just had my machine gone over and a little speck of oil hit it on the last petal I was appliquing. Didn't know what to do, so added a butterfly right over it. Took care of it.

Tussymussy 02-21-2011 03:01 PM

Very attractive and well made. Congratulations.

lalaland 02-21-2011 03:41 PM

That turned out absolutely beautiful!

Sp pretty-i just love the flowers!! Done very nicely, too!!!

Debbie B 02-21-2011 03:51 PM

How did you do the edges of your applique? By machine? And if so what type of stitch?

Connie in CO 02-21-2011 04:03 PM

That is so sweet,spring hurry up.

rootyr 02-21-2011 04:04 PM

That is beautiful!

charismah 02-21-2011 04:04 PM

beautiful!

busygranny 02-21-2011 04:05 PM

Yes I did the edges of the applique with my machine. Used the blanket stitch on the leaves and real small tight zig zag on the rest. They are applied with the wonder under and then sewn. Very easy. I do all my applique this way.
