CINDY'S CRAFTY CREATIONS: 2013

June 3rd is my day to show you my entry for the "Say It With Flowers Blog Hop." I would like to thank Madame Samm from Sew We Quilt and Carol from Just Let Me Quilt for allowing me to join such a fun blog hop. Our sponsor is Andover Fabrics.

I've been wanting to make a "tree wall hanging" for a long time now and thought this would be a great time to do so, changing out leaves for flowers :) I ironed on the fusible web to 3 colors of fabric and then got out the Cricut!

I was able to cut 3 flowers with the Cricut but then it got stubborn and would not cooperate, so I hand cut the rest.

Then I peeled off the paper backing and ironed the tree and flowers to the front of the white fabric.

For the binding I used Rae's "pretend binding" tutorial at Made By Rae. Very easy to follow.

Here is what I thought was the finished product. But every time I looked at it, it was missing something.

These are closeups of the extras I added to the flowers.

Here is the mini quilt with tabs and below is the new version with added red buttons. I did not try any quilting in the white spaces as I was petrified of totally ruining the project. Would you have added some quilting? and if so, what type?
