Cherry BlossomFriends of ours recently adopted from China. When designing their baby quilt, I could not find anywhere a 5-petaled, pieced flower block, let alone a cherry blossom. I searched all over and just came up blank. (As I don’t do applique or paper-piecing those were not options).

So I designed my own. It’s a easy block to piece. And versatile. I’ve already used it as a pansy. It is probably adaptable for a wild rose, or strawberry blossom, or buttercup, or wood violet, or forget-me-not, or…

Wow, beautiful. I have always wanted to learn to quilt. My H’s gramma gave us a huge quilt she made for our wedding gift and I love it. You do lovely work.
