Flower Tutorial:
Step 1. Take yellow flower, place on a piece of muslin, right sides facing. Make sure the flower is place on the bias of the fabric. Then stitch around the shape on the drawn line with a sewing machine.
Step 2. Cut a slit in the back of the muslin.
Step 3. Trim the excess fabric with a pair of pinking shears.
Step 4. Now snip with a pair of sharp scissors, almost to the stitching line, next to each petal.
Step 5. Turn the flower inside out, through the slit in the muslin. Gently pop each petal out, careful not to rip the seams.
Step 6. The flower is ready for stitching on the main part of the quilt.
Enjoy.
