It's very easy to make. The most fun part is picking out the fabric and playing with it.

BTW, Marcia, you will need to enlarge the pattern. Just enlarge it to the size you like. I took a black marker over my pattern. Then traced them onto freezer paper. One freezer paper template can last a long time. I sat at the ironing board with a fan on me and ironed on the freezer paper to the fabric, cut it out, then slapped that same template onto another piece of fabric. The freezer paper sticks long enough for you to cut out the flower. No pins, no getting stuck!

Another tip: You can save fabric by cutting the smaller shapes out of the scraps of the bigger shapes. It saves lots of fabric doing it this way.
