Dream Big Geometric
My first set of patterns for the Dream Big panel is geometric in style and I quilted in a thread slightly darker than the fabric for good contrast. The pattern set includes 55 custom patterns ready to place inside each petal and background area. Fill Inside will give you a final clean edge shape.

Dream Big Feathers and Pearls
​The Feathers and Pearls patterns will quilt channels, pearl edges, feathers, and other petal fills. Backgrounds
behind the feathers should be done freehand, if desired.
The zip file includes 59 patterns, a photo of the finished quilt, a pattern placement chart, and step-by-step instructions.
​I added a crocheted doily in the center of mine to add to the romantic feel, but it is just as beautiful with quilting only.
