Cut five pieces of fabric in squares of almost 3 inches each side. You can

cut more, depending of how many petals you want.



Step 2 y Previous Step

y Next Step

Take one square, fold it in half forming a triangle, then stitch the two sidesthat meet (V form). Pull the thread very tight, now you have one petal.



Step 3y Previous Step

Finally sew the flower where you want it, and then the button in the center.

And there you have a pretty, nice and easy fabric flower.

Traditional Petal Fabric Flower



Cut eight fabric circles. Iron and/or starch as your prefer.



Materiales:

y Tela (géneros) del color a elección, en dos tonos...yo escogí un satín rosado y tafetán estampado fucsia

y Tul (color a elección, yo elegí blanco estampado)y Satín o chifón para el centro, en amarillo u otro color que

más les gustey Un lápiz

y Silicona fríay Tijerasy Fieltroy Broche

y Bajar el patrón aquí y Ganas de trabajar! ;)

Así se hacen:



Marcaremos todos los pétalos grandes sobre la tela del color másoscuro, los pétalos chicos sobre la tela más clara. Los centros los

haremos con el color de tela a elección. Yo elegí un chifón

estampado en un tono amarillo.Coser todos los pétalos a máquina. Es mucho más fácil si pasan lospatrones a cartón y marcan sobre la tela los pétalos. Cosan cada

pétalo apoyándose de la línea de costura.

Corten los pétalos y unan con una costura simple a mano, fruncir,anudar y cortar el hilo. Repitan el mismo proceso con cada juego

de 5 pétalos.

Para el centro, haremos lo mismo con el patrón pasado a cartón,sólo que en esta ocasión lo coseremos solo a mano por todo el

derredor, fruncimos y anudamos. Nos ayudaremos con nuestrosdedos para acomodar esta pieza como un círculo



Cortemos ahora las 5 piezas de tul, este paso es opcional, ya que

tambien luce muy bien esta flor sin el tul.Fruncir el tul, anudar y ubicar el centro de éste con el centro de los

pétalos chicos.

Ahora, coseremos a mano, clavando de atrás hacia adelante, paraasegurarnos que todas las puntas de los pétalos del tul queden

bien sujetas.Cada pétalo de tul debe ir sobre cada pétalo pequeño de la flor.Una vez hecho esto, clavaremos el centro de la flor con unos

alfileres, para que no se mueva mientras lo cosemos.

Con puntada invisible, iremos cosiendo el centro de la flor,tratando de unir el centro con la capa superior de los pétalos

chicos.



Una vez terminado este punto, podemos unir con silicona fría, pero

yo prefiero coserlo todo, me parece que luce más delicado, peroeso lo dejo a su elección.

Si deciden seguir cosiendo a mano, entonces esto es lo queharemos:

- Clavaremos la parte superior de la flor a los pétalos grandes demanera que sobresalgan los pétalos grandes entre los pétalos

chicos.- Uniremos ambos juegos de pétalos, clavando la aguja de atrás

hacia adelante, procurando que las costuras queden escondidas enel borde del centro de la flor y así haremos por todo el contorno.

Terminamos con un nudo.

Para la parte de atrás, cortaremos la pieza de fieltro, luego lecolocaremos silicona fría por todo el borde de los pétalos grandes.Solo lo necesario, para fijar la pieza de fieltro mientras cosemos.El nudo tanto al comenzar, como al finalizar la costura alrededorde la pieza de fieltro, debe quedar escondido entre los pétalos.



Una vez terminado, podremos utilizar nuestra flor, para hacer, unbroche, un gancho para el cabello o para decorar un cintillo

(vincha) para el cabello... ó quizás para decorar un bolso... eso lodejo a su imaginación y al gusto de quien lo vaya a recibir. ;)

Mi hija me encargó uno en negro con azul para llevarlo al colegio,así que le pegué un gancho para el cabello y le forré una vieja

vincha con sesgo de satín negro y vean como me quedó:

La dueña quedó encantada, como estaba en el colegio cuandotomaba las fotos, no la pudo modelar, pero ya le tomaré su

respectiva foto ;)



Estas son las dos propuestas: sea sencillo o con el tul, ambos

lucen muy lindos. Tambien les he publicado 3 tamaños de pétalospara que puedan variar. Aquí hemos utilizado los tamaños de

pétalos B y C.Baja el patrón aquí

Ahora es tiempo de experimentar y sorprender a las chiquillas

coquetas con uno de estos arreglos. Espero que se animen arealizarlos :D

Begin by choosing your fabric. One color, two colors --- doesn't matter.



Trace a circle on your fabrics. This one is approx. 4 1/2 in. in diameter.

I usually cut out 4 circles from one fabric and 4 circles from another

fabric.



Find the center by ironing a crease down the middle.

And using ruler & rotary cutter, cut down the center of all the circles.



Your half circles.



Fold each half circle in 1/2, wrong sides together.

Sew approx. 1/4 in. seam down the straight edge. Feed all the 'petals'

through your machine w/o cutting the thread.

A petal necklace.....



Clip the threads that join these petals. Turn right side out.

Begin Bottom Layer of Flower



Use upholstery thread and stitch a running stitch on the bottom curve

of each 'petal'.

Add your next 'petal' with that same running stitch.



Keep adding 'petals' to this same length of thread, alternating the

fabric. I use 9 half circles for this bottom layer of the flower.

Pull tightly on the thread to form the flower. Secure with backstitches.

Leave a 8 in. tail when cutting thread.



Top Layer of Flower

Repeat steps for top layer of flower as you did with the bottom flower. I

use 6 'petals' for the top layer. Leave a 8 in. tail when cutting thread.

Using the 8 in. tail of thread, stitch the top layer to the bottom layer of

fabric flower. Do not cut threads. You will use this thread to secure the

button.



Use a button for the center of the flower. Fabric covered, or your

choice of button/bead etc.



Using the 8 in. tail of your thread, sew button to the center of the

flower.

Bring both threads to back, tie knot to secure.

Trace a circle on felt to cover the back center --messy thread part!--

and using fabric glue, attach circle to back of flower. Add a pinback if



you choose.

...and you have a

flower from anna's garden.



crocheted peony brooch tutorial



I have had requests for the pattern for the crochet peony brooch I

made here.

I used a size G hook and Caron Simply Soft yarn. Of course, you could

use any size hook or yarn/thread for this flower.

Begin with a slip knot.



Chain 6.



Join in a ring with a slip stitch.



Round 1: Chain 1 (counts as first sc.) Work 14sc into ring for a total of

15 sc.

Join with slip stitch.



Round 1: Chain 3 (counts as first dc), 2 dc into base of 3 chain, 3 dc

into each sc.



End with a slip stich in top of 3 chain.



Round 2: Chain 3 (counts as first dc), 2 dc into base of chain 3, 3 dc

into each dc, ending with a slip stitch into top of chain 3.

( edit: 12/07/09 -- Thank you to a very insightful email -- I see that the

original tutorial had a mistake on round 2. The mistake has been

corrected and I hope no one else was confused with my directions for this step. And a * huuuuuuuge* thank you to Marion for pointing this

out to me!!)



Round 3: Ch 3 (counts as first dc), 2 dc into base of 3rd chain, 3 dc into

each dc, end with slip stitch in top of 3ch.



Round 4: Work same as round 3.



Fasten off and weave in end.

To make fabric leaves:



Trace circle onto fabric choice for leaves. I used a jar lid.



Find center of circle by ironing a crease down the middle.



(Does this all seem familiar? Yup. It's just like the petals from the fabric flower

tutorial I did here.)

Using a rotary cutter, cut down the center for 2 pieces.



Fold piece in half, right sides together. Sew a seam down straight

edge.



Turn right side out.



Hand sew a running stitch on open edge.



Gather tightly. Secure with knot.



Hand sew to backside of crocheted flower.



I have a collection of vintage earrings. Loooooove to collect these, by

the way!



By gently pulling apart the back from the front, I can easily use the

perforated earring top to sew to the center of my flower.



You could also use a button, beads for the center -- or even leave it

plain.



Trace a circle onto felt and sew to cover the backside of flower.



Attach a pinback.



A gorgeous, crocheted flower brooch.

I would love to see yours if you make one!



Silk lotus f lower: The silk lotus flower is easy toconstruct, but looks very luxurious. You can make it in

any size, but pick fabrics that tend towards stiff, like silktaffeta, or dupione. You can singe the edges of the petalswith a flame (the flower here is singed), or just leave thecut edges raw. Also, after you master the basictechnique, you can experiment with different petalshapes.

Cutting the petals: You will cut five units to constructthe flower. Begin by cutting squares, measuring the sizeyou want the flower. In our example, I¶m using a 3´ square. For the demonstration, I¶m using paper, so you

can see the process.



Fold the square in half.



Fold one side up inthirds.

Fold the other side up.



Fold the entire unit in half lengthwise.

Cut as shown.



Open it out, and oneunit will look like this.

For the next step, you will have your five petal units, anda piece of crinoline.

Crinoline is a

milliner¶s interfacing,and is also customarily

used as a base for fabric and ribbon

flowers. If you don'thave crinoline, use any

stiff interfacing fabric.



To begin, hand stitch acircle in the center of

one of the units, 3/8´around.

Draw this row of hand stitching up tight, and

sew the center of the unit to the crinoline.The rows of stitching on the subsequent petal

units will also be gathered, and sewn to thecrinoline.

For the next four petal units, you will sew progressivelylarger circles before stacking each unit on top of theprevious one. Since I¶ve made the squares 3´, I¶m usingcoins to show the progression of the sizes of these circles.



Notice the largest circle, is 1/3 the total diameter of thepetal unit.

Making progressivelylarger circles of

stitching does twothings--it reduces the

diameter of each petalunit as the flower

progresses, and creates padding for a larger

flower center.

Unit two is hand sewn,and stitched to the first

unit, through thecrinoline.

This is what it will look like²the nub of fabric in the

center of the first petal unit, will be contained inside thenub of fabric in the center of the second petal.



As you are sewing the petal units to the

flower, make sure theripples in the petals are

evenly distributed

around the flower² you can pull the petalsone way or another

and hand-tack, toachieve this.

Petal unit three is sewn

and stitched to the firsttwo units.



Petal unit number four is stitched and sewn to

the developing flower.

The final unit number

five, is stitched andsewn to the rest of the

flower. Note thecenter of the flower²

the nubs of fabric inthe centers of the

units, will pad out thefinal center, giving it a

slightly roundedshape.



Turn the work over² you can see where it is

sewn to the crinoline.

Trim the crinoline

close to the stitches.

I am a HUGE fan

of felt flowers lately. I have made quite a few for my littlegirl and when I saw this idea on DIY Dish, I knew I was

all about making it for me too! If you haven't seen their

site, seriously, go check it out. They have some great

episodes and they just barely started so you don't have

too much great craftiness that you need to catch up on!

Print out their

great pattern for the flowers. I have also seen a great one

a long time ago that is a little simliar at Yoonie at Home's.

Cut out two of the largest size flowers.



Stitch forward and

back a few stitches on each "heart."

Then your flower

starts to "pop" and look more realistic.



This is what the

back looks like. Continue with the rest of the flowers in

the same fashion.

Then just sew

through all of the layers after you line them up so their

petals are opposite the one below it.



Then I snipped

two little parts in the back to put a clip in place. I used

some hot glue to keep it there so it didn't fall out.

Then I ripped a

piece of satin into a little shred and rolled it into a ball

with my fingers. I sewed that onto the smallest flower to

create a center. It was SO easy. Seriously, anyone can do

this. I helped my friend who has hardly sewn at all make

one of these and I helped teach a group of 8-11 year old

girls make these too. A great craft for anyone! Plus, you

can use this in your hair alone, put it on a headband,



beautify a bag or purse, clip it onto a belt or on a pillow

or blanket or shower curtain...anything goes! You could

also make a bunch of these and attach them to a "stem"

to create a beautiful bouquet of flowers that won't wilt!

So cute and I have one in pink and another in black that

are TOO fun! Any color is beautiful!

For those, I added

3 little pompoms (7mm in size) to create a flower center

but you could also use jewels, beads, pearls or another

fun embellishment.
