Here's a placement guide for you!

If you need a refresher on hand appliqué techniques...hop on over to the Appliqué Page!

Start by laying out your templates on the correct fabrics. You will need one 12-1/2" square of black for the background, one 5" square of light and medium purple-ish solid, and one 5" square of light and medium pink solid, one 5" square of light to medium yellow solid and one 10" square of mint-ish green solid. Also, you will need thread to match each of the design colors Follow the directions below for order of placement :o)

Lightly crease your background square to find it's center in both directions, then pin on your "stems" pieces, one over the other. Appliqué down using thread to match the stems...
Next, position the leaves, so that they just barely meet in the center, over the stem crossing point. Pin in place, and appliqué them down using thread to match the leaves...

Next, place the crocus back pieces over the very ends of the stems and appliqué in place using thread to match the crocus fabrics...

Then add the crocus tops being sure that they overlap the base of the crocus back units, and appliqué in place using threads to match...on to Page 2!
