| Fold it in half |
 |
| Here’s what the petals look like open |
 |
| Start by making larger ones and get progressively smaller. Not too small, though. For a large flower, you will need about 15 petals. Begin stacking them as shown |
|
 |
| Here’s what it looks like when they are all stacked |
 |
| Now get a needle and thread and pull the first stitch through the middle |
 |
| Stitch a small ‘x’ so everything is in place well |
 |
| Now that everything is secure, we are just going to form the flower more. I fold it in half and stitch it through |
 |
| Then after that I fold in half again and make another stitch through |
 |
| Here’s what it looks like after those steps |
 |
| After that, tie it off in the back |
 |
| You can add to it whatever you want to attach it. You can buy pins and glue it on, you can use a safety pin, a barette, whatever you want. You can also add fun things to the center like a pearl, a diamond, a fabric center, a button- anything! |
