Admire Roses without Thorns

Did you know that the Harison's Yellow rose (rosa harisonii) is once-flowering, meaning it only blooms once a year in spring? It and most other once-flowering roses are considered old garden or antique roses because they were discovered or hybridized before 1867. You might know it as the Oregon Trail Rose or the Yellow Rose of Texas, and it is considered hardy and exceptionally thorny. If you can't wait for the real thing, the GO! Harrison Rose Wall Hanging Pattern is the perfect solution - and is a whole lot less prickly!

Products used in this pattern:

GO! Harrison Rose by Eleanor Burns (55403)

Piece Together a Flowering Tradition

The GO! Urban Flower Garden Quilt Pattern harkens back to the traditional Grandmother's Flower Garden and uses the English Paper Piecing technique. While hand piecing is a challenge, it's a whole lot easier with the GO! English Paper Piecing Hexagon die by your side. When you're done, you'll have a flower garden from which you will never have to part.

GO! English Paper Piecing Hexagon-1" Finished Sides (55422)
