tulips! Using pattern by Bess Casey Wilke of Side Lake Stitch: top completed

Tulips
top completed 2025
83 by 65 inches

After the sunflowers, I had to make tulips.
Bess Casey Wilke of Side Lake Stitch has a great tulip pattern Flower Block HERE. 
I modified piecing a bit by using a goose for the center tip of the tulip and by using the Doug Leko tool for the leaves. And I widened the frame a bit to 2 inches cut.
LOVE THIS!!
Get her delightful pattern and read about her natural dye work!

I used Kona Snow for the constant and made each block with a different red print.

Backing is Farm Family Red by Marshall Dry Goods Co.

LOVE this beaters fabric of Robert Kaufman

    The wider frame gives the tulips a bit more room to breathe.
