I like making my own fabric flowers because you can make them to go with whatever project your working on, there unique, easy and it beats paying the high prices for ready made ones at the craft stores. ;-D

Do you make your own fabric flowers to use in your projects?

      That is cute and simple , and if you knew me, you would know I need it simple. But so many uses for this. Good explanation of the steps. I think I will use it as a gift “bow” next time.

      Very cute and simple. I love all the burlap projects I see and am looking forward to playing with some on a project soon. I also love Kim’s idea of using this as a gift adornment.

        Thanks Patti! I love making my own flowers for projects when I can, and I agree they would be great in gift wrapping. I will have to remember that. Thanks for stopping by!

      Linda I think these are very pretty. I had such a hard time making these a few months ago. I ended up making them really big because small ones turned my fingers into jelly. You are truly talented my friend.
