Here is the Dahlia I have just completed, I used 6 x 3 in strips, in hindsight next tine I will cut the strips 3 1/2 x 6 and then fold the top over 1/2 an inch as it would give a neater finish.

The cushion goes rather well with my "Circle of Crowns" quilt don't you think?

Very nice! I especially like the white print fabric! Makes the block sparkle!

The white print is a screen print linen done by one of Melbourne's young fabric designers who I always support, being a linen it was a rather thicker fabric than normal quilting fabric but I had it left over from other cushions I made and thought it would blend in with the other colors, so pleased you like it.
