I'm finally retired and feel I can do what I love. I'm so happy to be out of the rat race! I try to quilt, read and knit as much as possible. I love to get comments and will respond to each and every one! I hope you enjoy my little blog as much as I do! Thank you for visiting me!

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!
