I love flowers, especially roses, so I want to make them for my next project.
Luckily, I have found this amazing and beautiful rose twirl quilt tutorial byKaren Eckmeier.
I cant wait to sew different color variations.

Its made from freeform curves which make every finished piece unique.
Go ahead and watch the video below for the detailed process of this lovely block.
Mark 1/2, 3, and 5-1/2 on the bottom and one side edge.
Step 2:
Connect the dots by cutting an arc using a rotary cutter.
Flip the 3 bigger parts so the wrong side is facing.
Grab one piece of the stack.
Fold a quarter inch on the concave part of the fabric and press using an iron.
Do the same for the remaining pieces.
you’re able to also arrange them in your preferred color order.
Take one from the second size and place the concave part above the arc of the first piece.
Overlap a little bit and sew 1/8 inch from the edged curve.
Sew 1/8 inch from the edged curve.
Next, take another with the same size and sew on the opening bottom.
Sew 1/8 inch from the edged curve.
Place it so that a small curved triangle will show from the previous one.
Continue doing the process until the last pieces.
verify that the block is more than 5 x 5.
Step 7:
Once done with the pieces, press the block with an iron.
Flip it around and cut the excess fabric from the first layers of fabric.
check that to not cut the front.
Next, cut it to a 5-inch square.
