You don't need to BUY a template. You make your own by cutting off an edge of the same size circle you used for the main circle. I think that is covered in the original tute. When you lay your square on the big circle, what is left on the edge is half of the petal. Find some cardboard or plastic and make one.

I don't usually make all these craft things that shown here, but I want to make this.

Looks like the perfect Secret Santa gift to me. Great tutorial. I also enjoy making frog pincushions. The white lily one would be perfect for the frog.

Tartan, NativeTexan provided this link yesterday, and I'm delighted to find it - almost 5 years since you originally posted it. It's definitely worthy of the staying power it has on QB. Thanks for the tutorial!

aren't they pretty. in red or white. but any color just for a quilt. I hope to make another quilt or maybe a table runner for Christmas!

Hi I am new here and trying to learn my way around. Did you give the amount of yardage/fabric needed to make this ? even if for one flower & I can take it from there. I found this and followed it here & joined

Tartan 12-30-2018 07:34 PM

For one flower, you will need 1/4 yard of two 45 inch wide fabrics. You will need batt for the 4 circles but no batt for the 4 extra petals that are put on top of the 4 sewn together circles. Hope you can figure it out from there.

​It has been a while since I did the water lily and I think you can get the 4 circles from 1/4 yard green and 1/4 yard white but you need a little extra for the four petals that get inserted after sewing the circles together.
