These fabric flowers are easy and make great decorations. I first made them to attach to my friends' Christmas gifts but they can be pinned or sewn to just about anything.
What you’ll need:
- scrap fabric (aything will look good; small or big print)
- scissors
- a glass or cup
- a pen
- thread
- a needle
What you do:
- use the bottom of the glass to trace a circle on to your fabric
- cut 14 circles this way
- take 2 of the fabric circles and sew one on top of the other with a stitch in the middle. This is your base
- next take 4 of the circl
es and, one at a time, fold each one in half and stitch it to the middle ofthe ba
se circles (so you’ll have two on one side and two on the other)
- take the remaining 8 circles and, one at a time, fold each one in to quarters. secure them this way by making two or 3 stitches at the base of the fold. these will be your petals.
- one by one stitch each quartered circle to the center (making two layers of 4 each)
- tie off the thread at the bottom of the flower, fluff the ‘petals’ as needed, and you’re done!
