And then I made nine more. I mean really. Why not? : )
And then I flipped them. And then I PRESSED THEM with a big steam iron. lol And then I sewed them all together.
You are probably looking at this teeny Dresden Plate flower in actual size. It's about three inches across with the petals about a half inch wide. It was soooo uber-cute that I had to dot the centre with a button!
It's an 'on' point quilt-as-you-go block, so it's all quilted. I embroidered the stem and border with green floss. The little flower is only stitched in the ditch. That's all I needed to do. The petals curl up a bit which looks soooo pretty. And when I peek under, I can't find any raw edges. So like this it will stay.
