This pattern requires fusible web and water soluble pen.
You have to mark the design on fabric and then fuse the applique pieces onto it. You will be ironing over the markings, so make sure you have a marking pen that does not disappear with heat, but can be washed out when you are finished with the quilt.
Test how your marking pen reacts to ironing. Mark a scrap of fabric then press. Wash the fabric the same way you will wash the quilt. Before starting to make the quilt, make sure the marking lines wash out completely.
I use washable markers designed specifically for kids. They are cheap and come in many colors; see here more information about them.
Easy technique
Print the pattern, transfer the design on the top fabric, prepare the applique pieces then fuse them in place.
Detailed suggestions for quilting are provided.
This quilt is machine free motion quilted with a free motion (darning) foot and feed dogs down.
You can quilt anything on your flowers (stippling is PERFECT). I quilted feathers- free tutorial on my blog.

I downloaded your flower sphere pattern and have to say that the instructions you give are phenomenal. I am a novice quilter and was able to follow everything easily. I made a quilt that I am very proud of thanks to your amazing design and instructions. You are a very talented designer and give clear and thorough instructions which have been invaluable. Thanks again and keep the great designs coming. Steve
