From New Quilters comes this interesting and fun tutorial on how to make a rose quilt block. It is an almost freeform technique that leads to beautiful results.
You don’t need any fancy tools, just pins, fabric and a ruler (see-through). Lots and lots of scraps are used when making this block. That is the beauty of it. It’s a great way to use up some of your fabric scraps. The author’s roses were red, but I am partial to yellow, so I’m thinking this would be a lovely yellow and green quilt too.
Sometimes it is nice to do a project like this. There is not too much measuring and no two blocks are the same. It is a bit liberating.
