If you look very closely you will see a line of stitches that adds texture to the blanket.
Plan ahead the distance between each line. Then you can determine how far apart to make your bright pink lines. Attach to the beginning under two threads, chain 4 then attach to the next two threads. Do this all the way across the length of the lap blanket. Cut your thread and close the stitch leave a string to weave in. Go back to the beginning and attach again. Spacing as you have planned to keep the rows evenly apart. I made seven rows.

Finished - Yay!
Make all your flowers. Spread your blanket across your table or the floor.
Put your flowers in the order you want them. Sew each one on and put a little bit of glue onto the center of each flower. Let it dry. Weave in all your strings. Weave it in by making two or three turns. it makes it harder to come loose.
