Birthday bouquet!

Aren't they so pretty! 11 paper bag roses, made from 6 paper bags (I
have leftover painted bags, can probably make 6 more, but not tonight,
it's late, and I've burned too many fingers on my glue gun!). I
followed the pattern in "Fanciful Paper Flowers" which I borrowed from
the library. I also used the rose petal patterns to make the cloth
rose on my grandma's travel pillow, and will make one or two more
fabric roses to put on her quilt.
I haven't finished binding the quilt, so she won't get that at her
party tomorrow, but hopefully by her birthday on Thursday. She's gonna
be 85, and still going way strong!
Her name is Rosemary, and her boyfriend calls her Rosie, hence all the
roses.
