thanks for the suggestions. It just seemed to have all the Easter colours that reminded me of those extremely sweet candies. But to use it year round, why not?

So pretty, wish it lived at my house! Have a lovely spring, enjoy the flowers.

Barbara Lee 03-27-2012 03:04 PM

Can you give the name of the pattern, or where you got it. Its beautiful.

phranny 03-28-2012 10:50 AM

Well Barbara Lee, I will do my best. I started to follow a pattern from the book Simply Charming Collection, but changed my mind part way through.

I started cutting my FQ's into 5 inch squares. Then cut 2 inch squares for the flower centers, placing one 2inch square on each 5 inch square, sewing it across, trimming and pressed it. Then I cut 2 3/4inch squares of a background colour and placed it in the opposite corner, sewed across, trimmed and pressed. If I were to have followed the pattern totally, then you would place another 2 3/4 inch square on the next corner, and it would create what looks like the petal of a flower when joined to three more units.

I only did the one corner, that's why they look like circles, and not flowers. Join the units 3 X 3, here the pattern calls for a narrow border and a wider border, but I didn't do that either. Sandwich, quilt and bind. Voila.

Hope this helps you!
