Trace at least one flower (Choice), use your outside solid ls, and repeat your steps to cre the foliage, or les. Use the variety of green patterns and use the yellow narrow pieces to cre the center of your flower.

You can design roses if you like. Use a variety of greens, red, pink, white, etc, if you intend to cre roses and petals. Along the ls, you h marked, cut the fabric strips sewn onto your fabric, the shaped patterns that form your design, cutting only near the ls. Use freezer paper and turn it over so that you reveal the side that does not h a sh. You want to cre a starting l for the six centers of your flowers, and the flowers also. Once you mark the 12 parts, mark the les (12), marking them inside the dash ls. Now you are ready to cut your shapes.

You will need an iron and board. Use your hot ps, or iron to ps the flowers on your paper, psing in the middle of your flowers on the left side and in the middle. You want the glossy paper turned in the dirion of your fabric flower at this point. Do the same with the center of the flowers and foliage.

Next, coll your yellow filament/thread and tone it with the center of your flower. If the colors do not match, try another shade of yellow. Run ls of stitches into your cloth, which encloses the g of the freezer paper. You want to congreg your mrial around this g, so pull your filament up at the end. Now, tie your thread, ps the g, and use your starch bottle, spraying the region. Do the same for the center of your flowers.

Next, use your variety of green filaments that match your les and coll the allowances at the seam. (1/4 inch) Coll around the foliage and streamls of stitches along your fabric, about the enclosed region of your g that is designed on the freezer paper. You want to coll your textile about the g. Pull your filament/thread up at the finish and tie it, psing the g. Again, spray with starch.

When you congreg your allowances at the flower seams, snip the inner points of the flower corolla/petals where the flower collively forms a g. You will need to coll your thread that matches the color of your petals, such as pink. Just as you colled the edges of your les, do the same for your corollas. Once you finish running stitch ls in your fabric, which you h enclosed freezer paper about the g, you will need to gather your mrial about the g. Next, pull your strands of thread up at the finish. Next, bind your filament and then ps the g. Ps, and spray the region with fabric starch. Now seam your allowances, i.e. snip the central points of the les, flower center, etc where the flower collively forms a g. Ps and starch to complete your crafting task:

Now you are ready to assemble the top of your quilt. After you assemble, you can move to finish your craft.
