fabric blooms


I made some of these flowers for Hannah's bedroom curtains and as a gift for a friend. They became quite addictive to make.

Cut 5 circular pieces of fabric approximately 6cm diameter, one for each petal.

Fold each circle into quarters. Zig zag the raw edge to prevent the petal from fraying.

Using a needle and thread, gather the petals together along the curved edge using large stitches.

Keeping the thread intact gather each of the petals together and tie off.

Either glue or stitch a button to the center of the flower.
