PICK A PETAL -- Show Your Finished Top Here

[Linda]

I arranged the blocks differently to create a secondary pattern. My mom's favorite hymn was "In The Garden". The fussy cut fabrics are garden related, and include my grandma's hand-embroidered handkerchiefs and crocheted doilies. I machine embroidered "flowers" of the words of the hymn

Beautiful colors, and I like your appliqué.

Machine pieced the entire quilt. All the curves went smoothly. Didn’t like Jen’s appliqué so I drew my own.

Here is my Pick a Petal Plus.
It was revealed to my Sunflower Quilters guild during our quilting retreat.

I misread the instructions and ended up with a lot of outside blocks.

I really love the colour theme in your quilt. It's so organised and well planned. Mine is still underway after many hold-ups throughout the year. It is very scrappy and I really don't like the overall effect as much as a planned combination of colours as in your quilt. Congratulations!

My final top pick a petal…
I truly loved doing this project.
it brought back memories of hand stitching with my grandmother and mother.✂️

My Pick a Petal hanging on my wall. It's a very happy quilt. Thank you all for a nice BOM.

[Barbara B.]

Hello All-- As we have reached the end of the year I am happy to be able to report that I have finished my version of this year's bom. I learned a lot about color, prints, how to stich by hand, cutting with precision, modifying design and never giving up. This is my "wall hanging" version -- when I thought I was finished making all of the outer borders I found I needed to make four more! lol (thats the break at the top) -- which I am finally working on today. Happy Holidays to all -- happy quilting. Thank you Barbara and all who post.
