These wildflowers are great to learn the basics of a unique applique technique, the Draw-Sew-Trim™.
You can use them for a flower pillow but of course, you are free to use it for whatever you would like: you can create a meadow landscape with a beautiful sky, a few hills of different colours and green grass behind them; you can applique them on your bag or backpack, your garment.
For the landscape, you can have an arrangement ready for them, drawn already onto the white fabric interfacing so that you can work right on the background. Or if you would like to arrange them later on, you can create the elements on separate pieces of white fabric, cut them out later and arrange them on your background. It is up to you. I hope you will have fun with them.
Cushion size: Finished size is 45 cm x 45 cm (18" x 18").

When you have your design printed, you need to assemble the sheets of papers and transfer the flower to a piece of white fabric. (I refer to that as interfacing but it is a piece of cotton fabric).
​
This video is about our previous project, the Snowdrop Pillow but all the preparations are the very same with this project too. The fabric selection is different, please find them in the "Requirements".pdf.

At the time given above, I will go live in the Draw-Sew-Trim Facebook Group. If you are not a member yet, please join, because that is how you can see the live video, give feedback and ask questions by commenting.

For a smooth start please have your fabrics and accessories prepared along with your design drawn onto a piece of white fabric. If you have never done any Draw-Sew-Trim projects before please do not get discouraged as I will explain and teach everything step by step from the very beginning. You can also ask questions and we will do our best to answer every one of them.
I do hope we will have a nice creative day to keep ourselves positive and if it works out well, we will certainly do some more.
Thank you for your support,
Happy quilting,
Katalin
