Materials:
- 24″ table topper:
- 4 fat eighths (or scraps) for flower petals
- 1 fat eighth (or scrap) for the flower center
- 2/3 yard background fabric
Directions:
Step 1
To start, make eight half-square triangles. Place one flower petal square and one background square, right sides together, draw a line from corner to corner, then sew a 1/4″ on either side of that line. After sewing, cut directly on the line you drew. Press and trim into 2 1/2″ square. Next, cut four 2 1/2 squares using the flower petal fabric, and one 2 1/2 square for the flower center. After this, cut four 2 1/2″ background squares, and four background 5″ x 2 1/2″ rectangles.

Step 2
Once you have cut all the units needed for the block, go ahead and lay them out, referring to the picture below. Then, start sewing together by sewing the corner units first. After this, sew the center pieces. Press towards the darker fabric, then sew all the units together to complete the block. Repeat these steps to create three more wildflower blocks to complete the table topper.
