    If you'll Google "Folded Dahlia" you will get a list. The first one is the one I used which is from "dungeonquilter" from the QB.

    I learned today that if you go to the Search section above & type in Folded Dahlia you'll get a whole string of discussions about them. I didn't know that til today.

    Our mini group is going to make these in Oct. and several ladies wondered what to do with them. In addition to what you have suggested...the one I will make will grace the top of my toilet seat lid. I will make a larger background so I can fit it according to the pattern that I made. I chose my colors to go with my guest bathroom. Two or three smaller sized ones could be used on the top of the toilet tank if you don't put other stuff there. They also make great tops for foot stools.

    Oh my gosh, I am laughing at your idea of putting it on your toilet seat. Now there is an idea. LOL. I'd love to see a pix after you do that. What a great idea.
