    Fantastic tut. Thanks so much. I am not a real big fan of the usual "Christmasy Stuff" but this is lovely.

    We have a falling leaves festival coming up and this would be a fantastic table runner for it. I thank you for the tute. It is very well done.

    Thanks for the tutorial! Here's mine. I "cheated" a little on the add-on petals. Instead of leaving an opening for turning them, I cut a small slit (about 1.25") in the back side of the fabric, on the end that goes near the flower's center, and turned them that way. The slit gets covered up and stitched down, so it doesn't show, and I didn't have to hand-stitch any openings closed. I think this would be pretty with a gold flower on ivory fabric (or vice versa), too.

    Thank you Tartan for the tut and it would be perfect for a 'winter' one with snowflakes.

    Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed tutorial. I do believe I may be able to get my grand daughter interested in making a quilt with this technique!
