Pattern Description:

Forever Flowers is an original quilt pattern for either a baby or lap quilt. The inter-locking flowers dance across the quilt. Rolled-back bias edges give these flowers curves and apparent movement without any curved piecing. Choose a border print that you love and start collecting 8" x 10" scraps for your colourful flowers! If you can sew a four-patch then you can make this quilt. Crib quilt will require 30 flowers and lap quilt uses 48 flowers.
