I haven’t done any dimensional flowers for a while so I thought I would add a few to my tree quilt just for fun. These flowers are super dimple and fun to make. Here’s how I did it.
First I cut out 5 circles of fabric…each is 2”.
Then I pressed them in half.
I stitched a running stitch 1/4” from the raw edges around the half circle.
Pulled tight
Added 4 more petals, pulled really tight and tied a knot.
Here I have a 2 circles, each 1”, fused wrong sides together.
I use a little fabric glue to glue the flower down so I can sew on a button….
I was having a real hard time figuring out which buttons to use when I had this brainstorm idea. Why not make my own? Tutorial on that step tomorrow.
Those are going to look very cute on your tree. Great idea.
