Quilt Assembly

To make a pieced strip, randomly choose (25) rectangles and sew them together to make
a 5 ½” x 75 ½” strip. Make a total of (4) pieced strips.
Make 4 pieced strips
2.
To prepare the flowers, appliqué a center to each flower, matching the sizes by the letters.
3.
To make a flower panel, randomly pick (5) A , (5) B & (5) C flowers. Starting 2” from the top of a background
strip, place the first flower. Use the photograph on the cover as a guideline. Position the flowers down the entire
strip - leaving at least ½” of space from the sides for seam allowance - and pin in place.
The flowers should look like they’re scattered so leave uneven spaces between them and turn the flowers so they
are oriented in different directions. There is no right or perfect way to position the flowers. Just play and have
fun!
Appliqué the flowers using your preferred method. Make a total of (5) flower panels.
4.
Sew the flower panels & pieced strips together, starting and ending with a flower panel.

To make the backing, sew the two pieces together to make a 67” x 84” piece.
