So, tomorrow I have a super cool surprise, that I am dying to tell you all about, but I can’t. So, in order to keep my mouth shut about what I can’t say- I’m going to do another flower tutorial. Since there aren’t enough out there.
This flower is made using the same technique as my chrysanthemum pillow– just FEWER petals!

To start you will need five large circles and five smaller circles. (I used the top of a 44 oz soda cup and a small
IKEA kids cup)
[ignore the picture which shows three half circles- I had a strip of fabric I wanted to use so I cut six half circles out of it- you don’t need to do that]

Take two of your small circles and sew them together all the way around. Then take the rest of your circles and fold them in half, then sew around the edge. Trim with pinking shears [there are those half circles again- I told you to just ignore them ;)]
Creator, sewist and mom of 6. Making and sewing keeps me sane and happy. I'm here to share my love of creating with you. Free patterns, tips and tricks and videos to help you discover your own creative passions.
