Scroll Flower Week #3


I think I'm finally figuring out how to solve my spacing problem with these scroll flowers. I made the stem shorter which eliminated that awkward space that I would end up with. I like a little space around each of the flowers but this is smaller and nicer to look at! The spacing is much more even with a shorter stem. I'm hoping to use this pattern on the quilt I just spray basted. I need a few more days of practice and then I'm going for it!


This is a close up of the flower. The spacing is more even and fits the size of the flower much better. I will once again be linking up over at Amy's Free Motion Quilting Adventures.  Hope you go over and take a look at the other scroll flowers!

    1. Thanks! It seems like a nice allover pattern. I need something to do other than just stippling.
