Tartan, when I made my poinsettia, I used fusible batting. I cut it to fit just inside the stitching line, laid it so that the fusible side would end up next to the side to be slit, and just lightly pressed the iron to about 2/3 of it. Then, after slitting the fabric and turning it, I pressed the whole thing and the fusible batting almost sealed the slit. Just FYI an easy way of doing this step. Thanks again for a wonderfully clear and concise tutorial.

Thank you, have family's coming over for a family craft-together. This is a perfect project,everyone will love it.

Very nice, thank you.

I love it. A great idea.

I have made these as table runners for gifts in Christmas colors to make it look like a poinsetta and placed yellow beads in the center the pattern was by Charlie... My sister in laws love them..! I like your idea as a water lily... how clever...

Good tutorial, this would look awesome on my new table for Christmas. Thanks

Thank you!!! I had lost my pattern and looked on here and there you are!!

If you remember to stop 1 stitch before the point and just take a hop over to begin sewing the other side at same spot. In all sorts as sewing and quilting use this technique for points and I get them. Theory is that the space created by just that one stiitch gives well trimmed seam allowance somewhere to go. You'll get a point instead of a ball. HTH

I love your tutorial = great job of showing us step by step. I will definitely have to try this one out. Thanks so much for posting.
