I also used TWO DIFFERENT Round 2's for the Noo Noo blanket

12 PETAL FLOWER

FLOWER DETAILS...ORIGINAL BLANKET

 FLOWER MEASURED: 8" diameter and l need to make it 40" wide x 54" 

long.

perfect to go over the seat when not up as a bed

Making 5 x 7 flower = 32 complete flowers.....a nice size to do

This is the camper so do l stay with the green and cream and a splash of orange or go for the rainbow of colour in the flags?...
