Simply Red Quilt Pattern BOM Rosette Block

March 14, 2017

Rosette is block Ten of the Simply Red Quilt Pattern BOM.

The Rosette block uses four red fabrics and one background fabric. A simple flower borderd by half moon shapes.

I love making the flowers as a whole unit before stitching them to the background. My Simply Red Applique blocks are stitched with a turned edge invisiblely by machine, you can find out more about how I do my applique here.

Because the feathered star blocks use many fabrics, placing a single printed light background fabric under the applique would just stand out too much. Take a look at my process for mixing up the fabrics in the applique borders.
