I found the perfect background for this quilt over the weekend. It's a chocolate tone on tone polka dot. I can't wait to start! Thank you for the beautiful blocks!!!
I was wondering where you get the batting that you are using in the circles and also for some reason when I press my leaves or anything else, they are not holding the shape, I am not using enough starch?
Thanks for you help.

Probably not enough starch. You have to experiment with the starch water mix sometimes. I use 1 part starch to 5 parts water ( 1/4 cup starch to 1 1/4cups water) I know some people use Magic Sizing (light body) which is in a can at the grocery store. To use this just spray some into the top and use the same way as the starch.
I hope that helps
