Send instead of a greeting card for multiple occasions.

Change the color of the rose to be appropriate for the occasion. The overall background is stipple quilted and the background behind the rose is quilted with a heart motif. The rose patch is reverse appliqued. This is a simple technique and is explained clearly in the photo instructions. There is a delicate decorative edge along the applique edge.

This project is entirely completed in the hoop so no additional sewing machine or hand stitching is required.

There are two stitch files in your download - one with the full design and the words Happy birthday (including swirl) and the other with the rose design on the left but no wording on the right. That way you can insert your own words or let a special fabric speak for itself.
