Ollie1shoe... I am in Eleanor's BOM at the store! This pattern was one of the test patterns... I believe it will be in her next book... with a template and ruler to make the leaf tips perfect... Others have done a similar pattern... but I would wait until the new book comes out! Eleanor's methods are waaaaaayyyyyy easier!

Cheers!

Thank again everyone...

Fabricgirl... yes I did all my own quilting... I am still very "green" at free motion... but I did get some leaves to shape right... I can't afford to send out all my stuff... and besides I find that to be the "enjoyable" part... of course the best part is washing and drying so it scrunches all up...

Cheers!
