Instructions
-
1
Cut out two felt circles. I used the bottom of a coffee syrup bottle for a pattern.
-
2
Thread needle with coordinating thread of 1st circle. Start at center and do a running stitch to the outside.
-
3
Parallel to the stitch you just did, do a running stitch back to the middle.
-
4
Pull the thread tight and tie a knot.
-
5
At 120 degrees, repeat steps 2, 3, 4.
-
6
Another 120 degrees, (or 1/2 way between material left) repeat steps 2, 3, 4.
-
7
With the different color felt and coordinating thread, make second "flower". Through the middle, sew them together (rotating second flower 120 degrees so you can see back flower piece).
-
8
Decorate flower with buttons, beads, other felt pieces, etc. Just let your imagination go!
I used a plain, small button and sewed on with beads.
-
9
Glue a pin back on your flower for a spring brooch or use as a decoration (I made a smaller one for a hair decoration on a felt doll).
Make a whole bunch and decorate a pillow or a straw hat.
