Again this is another lovely pattern Melva brought to us~ 

Love Sunflowers! Perfect for August in Minnesota.

It uses EPP (English Paper Piecing) method, 
I cut out some paper and roughly cut out all the fabric pieces, 
but changed my plan and used Y-seam machine piecing.

Then I found the flower ring was too big :(   
Should have resized the fabric pieces before sewing.

I had to remove one pedal, and only have 15 instead of 16. 

Then I hand appliqued the central round piece. Reverse appliqued the outer round background fabric.

A beautiful yellow flower is blooming in my back yard~ 

I have made some blocks that are similar: 

I call it "3D sparky Dresden plate"

And here is another one I made in May, 2020, same method used:

update on 8/22/2020   I also made the easy version block10A: Often
