Sharon I looked up her book and I just realized that your border is NOT a one piece floral border. It is fussy cut floral appliques??
Yiu deserve the ribbon!!

That is sooo beautiful. I love the way the flowers break up the border.

Lacybritt you are right about the appliques, but you do use the floral one piece border. You just add the appliques from the same fabric to blend the borders so you don't see the straight seams that you ordinally would. It is a really great technique.
