The French Rose Quilt picture made me want to try this pattern sooooo bad. Don't have the pattern so.......I tried one block of my own rose design (just cut out a few blobs) and also decided to try FMQ. I want to make a bed runner and have a plan in mind but do you all think it will look OK or should I make more of an effort to obtain the pattern? Ignore the FMQ as that is my first try.

Thank you for your opinions.

I think you have the pattern down pat - really like your colors. Don't see anything wrong with the quilting either. Keep going.

Actually I think it looks pretty dang good. Thats the fun of it when you can draft something and call it your own.

Impressive!!!
That is really NICE for just a few "blob's"!
And the FMQ looks lovely too!!!
Great job!!

looks wonderful to me

I like it!! Very creative. Nice Job!

Looks reral pretty, and the quilting is looking great

Looks good to me. And I think you did a nice job with the quilting as well.

Love, love, love it. Keep going. Your quilting is great too. Can't believe you can do things like this without a pattern. I'm a pattern kind of person. Your bed runner will be stunning.

Oh, thank you so much. Just wasn't sure. Now I will go cut out some more "blobs" and squares and get started. I will practice my FMQ a lot more before I attempt to quilt the bed runner but you gotta start somewhere! LOL
