Really dearheart....it looks good to me, I actually like your fabric choices...thats what I see...a really happy cheerful block! Great job!
I put my magnifying glasses down when i put my own quilting down.
What? you think meeces want to look like their eyes are as big as their ears???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

The second problem is that my petals meet and form straight sides instead of nice curves as they come towards the center of the flower. What in the world did I do wrong to get them to do this???? :roll: :roll:

Here is my AOTH #8. This is all I did while quilting with my new quiltingbody- first time we met. We had a great time knowning about each other and quilting.
I am not sure if I shuld add the center piece. What do you think? If I do I was thinking a purple-lilac color.

are those the little plastic thingies that are round and have the holes cut out on the edges?
I did ok, after much fiddling...on my #9, but today I sewed them down...should have left them pinned, lol.
oh well, last time I tried to rip stitches that little? I ripped alright...two tiny holes in a block.
Had to retire that one!
It will be staying "as is".
