Marcus Fabrics - Make it with Marcus, Create-A-Room, Floral Block

Floral Block for the Create-A-Room Series
by Vandarra Robbins

The quilt block can be photocopied and enlarged (150%) to make a 10" x 10" block. Cut the block apart to create templates, adding 1/4" seam allowances to all sides. Double the width of the bindings so that they measure 2" wide. The finished block size is 9 1/2" x 9 1/2".
