Someone asked me how I made the fabric flower shown in my basic clutch tutorial so here you go!
Step 1: Cut out circles of fabric. The number of circles you cut and the size just depends on the size of the flower you are making. My circles are about 2.5″ in diameter. You can use something circular for a template (like a cup) or you can just cut them without a template at all. They don’t have to be exact.
Step 2: Take one circle of fabric and fold it from the center as shown in the picture. There is no exact way to fold it.
Step 3: Using you needle and thread, stitch the center of the “petal” to your fabric. Make sure you go through all the folds so you keep the shape.
Step 4: Continue stitching your petals around until you get your desired look.
Pretty easy, right? For a different look, try cutting squares of fabric instead of circles.
Wow! Love it… I will try it for sure since it seems to easy to make!
Thanks for sharing the steps with us!
thank you so much!
pretty simple, pretty easy, and lovely!
just what i was looking for.
There’s another way too that does not require sewing.
1.Cut out a felt circle the size you want your flower to be.
2.Next, you cut a bunch of circles the size you want your petals to be.
3.Then you fold the circles in the middle add a drop of glue from a glue gun and glue the first piece in the middle.
4. Last, just work your way around the center one.
Voila! You’ll have your flower.
I’ve done in both ways sewing and with glue and to be honest for me is most beatiful was just sewing
