These are really just 10-minute blocks (see http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-81908-1.htm) but starting with what I'll call a 1/4 snowball.
For one flower, you need 2 -- 5" squares of fabric 1 2 -- 5" squares of fabric 2 1 -- 4" square for center 4 -- 2.5" squares of background Sew each background square onto one corner of your four 5" squares. Trim seam to 1/4" and press toward the background color (picture 2). This makes a 1/4 snowball block Arrange the 4 "petals" as shown in picture 3 below. Proceed with the instructions from the tutorial above. There are just 2 differences: 1) my middle square is smaller than my 4 petals 2) you have to be careful about the orientation of the 4 petals, to keep them in the pinwheel. The blocks should square up to 9.5 inches (9 inches finished) 2 example blocks [ATTACH=CONFIG]211439[/ATTACH] making the 1/4 snowball [ATTACH=CONFIG]211440[/ATTACH] arranging the petals [ATTACH=CONFIG]211441[/ATTACH] |

Thank you so much. It's always fun when someone thinks up a new way to do a technique. I bookmarked and printed out.

Looking for flower to hand applique pattern. Nothing too tedious with the skinny stems. Anybody have one to share.
Thanks, Jean |
Thank you for that idea, I am going to make them smaller and do a small mini quilt top with them. Which I can see as a flower garden with the batiks. Again thank you really cute
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
The tut was great, but---do you applique the center sq on or top stitch or what? Guess I'm a little slow on this one.

I don't understand how the center block goes in. Do you sew the four other blocks together and then add the center block?
|
Never mind I found the other tute and now understand. Sorry for being so dumb!! :-)
|
Thanks for the tutorial, I really like this block.
|
COOL! Thank you for sharing.

How pretty!
|
Thanks so much for this one, I thought I might figure it out from your picture and having seen the original, but thanks for saving my brain power..... Lord knows I have little enough as it is.
|
I would never in a million years have come up with this one! Thanks
:shock: :shock: :shock: :thumbup: Jan |
quite an improvement on the regular 10-min. block! Will try it in the motning.
|
Definitely on my someday list!
|
I was thinking that the centers might be interesting if done like a 3-D bow-tie block so that the flower centers are 3-D. I might play with this idea.
