Beautiful!!! You did a great tute. I'm going to make this next week after I can get back into my sewing room.

Excellent! Thanks for sharing!

I'm a visual learner and you did an amazing job on explaining this. Thank you so much.

Thank you! Going to be digging through my stash and hope to make a couple of these after I finish the quilt I'm working on. It's really nice of you to take the time to make this tutorial. How were the pear pies?

Thank you for doing this . I think I can follow these as well. So I need to get some material and make some for christmas gifts. Thank you!

Thank you, I'm adding this to my favorites. Love it!

Very good! This looks like the Less than Traditional Pattern Quilter's Haven has the templates small and large also a video for sale on www.quiltershaven.net if you would like to buy the rulers and video called Quilting with charlie. I made these last year for presents and they turned out great. Lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the great tutorial. Love it!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for sharing.

this very pretty flower for a nice home decor

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.

Thank you I'll have try this.

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.

Great tute!!! Love this idea and can't wait to try it.

what a nice topper thank u for the tutorial:thumbup:

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!

Great tute! Clear and concise...your pics were self explanatory...great job!

This was a fun distraction this morning. I happen to love mug rugs, so thought I would go small. I pretty much failed, but I still like it

Had to take these with my phone, so quality is so so

Anyway, next I decided I would try the "big girl" one, but really only wanted to do 7-inch circles because for some reason I have a lot of scrap that size. On both, I sewed down the scalloped borders. So I made this trivet size one for a girlfriend of mine. Apparently I am not the best at following directions. The center looked bad, so I gave it a new center.

Thanks a bunch for sharing this with us!

:thumbup:I think they turned out great! I really like the colours you used and how you arranged your petals.

This is really beautiful. Makes a difference with the extra leaves and your stitching on them. Thanks for sharing

This is a really great tute and thanks Tartan for showing us how to do this. Like everyone else's creations, too. Hope I can get one of these made by December.

Thanks so much for the tutorial. They are so much fun to make. Love the idea of using different colors, Red/Green for Christmas, white/blue for snowflakes, oh my goodness, I could go on with more ideas. Have made red/green and white/green, now as my mind goes on, I need to get to my sewing room while the brain is hot...so many ideas that need to be acted on. Happy sewing/quilting today!!

Wow!! These look so neat!! Can't wait to try making one. This would be a great thing to make totes out of too.

I like this idea. You did a good job, thanks.

Thank you so much!!! Wonderful tut!!!!!

printable PDF format for faux flower tutorial
 

Good morning! I hope you don't mind, but I took your wonderful tutorial and turned it into a PDF so that it can be easily downloaded and printed.

Thanks so much dilyn!

Those are so fun. Thanks for the tute.

Cookie64, thanks for the link. I bought her templates and video at the quilt show a few years ago. Every year I stop by to see what new things she has.

Thanks for the tut. I can't wait to make one. I love poinsettias and this will look pretty on my table and make nice gifts.

Love your runner, and your instructions are great and easy to follow

Just a quick question before I do this wrong, maybe! Do you cut the batting the same as the circle, or cut the batting the size including the seam allowance?

Thanks, I'm making my templates today.....I try to make something each year for the females in my family for Christmas, this will be perfect. Are there any pitfalls you can think of?

What size circles do you use in the first place? I love your tutorial.

I made an entire reversible quilt this way..... it is an awesome way to make circles!!!!
