There are 125 folded flowers, it took me 16 hours to fold them. It took me 15 minutes to sew each flower down. This quilt was alot of work. I just had 6 flowers left to sew down, when my friend came over with her quilt and she insisted I keep at it until I was finished. Thanks to her, I was able to finish a quilt top that had been in process for about 4 years.
Used my new tool, it works great!!!
Almost completed.....my thread keeps breaking when I stipple...so I am at a stand still. I was hoping to be finished but....soon. Oh....I am not able to tell you what book or pattern this is because the book is in storage...sorry that I am not able to give credit where credit is due.
New to your blog, Barb, via Gene. :)
