Here is a tute on how to make a folded rosebud.
Attach the rosebud to the background fabric inside of the calyx placement

closeup
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194601[/ATTACH]
drawn a circle on fabric, in our case I drew a 3" circle
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194604[/ATTACH]
cut out on drawn line
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194605[/ATTACH]
fold circle in half
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194606[/ATTACH]
fold in one side to middle, align lower edge
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194607[/ATTACH]
fold in other side, overlapping a bit
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194610[/ATTACH]
close to lower edge, take a couple of tacking stitches.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194612[/ATTACH]
Tack the rosebud down along the bottom and inside of the folds of the bud, opening up the folds to hide the stitches
[ATTACH=CONFIG]194621[/ATTACH]
place calyx over folded rose & stitch in place, tucking the fabric around the rosebud.

gal288,
Thank you so much for getting the May BOM out on the QB today! You gave me a Mother's Day project to do and I love the interruption from my LAQ projects (only 2 left to go!).
Here is my May block, I will get the border done during my Tuesday "NO NCIS" nites.
