Fabric Flowers.

These are simple D.I.Y ,
can be used on clip as shown or hair band or pin it from behind and use it a very chic brooch.


I don't have a step by step tutorial for this,
but its pretty simple.
Take a small piece of rectangle fabric ( i have used a knit fabric )
and then collect it in the centre 
stitch it.
Now you'll have a nice bow.
stitch a button in the centre.
or a sequence.

I've used it on a clip.



Another fabric flower.
i've used a nice 2 fabric:
a woolen check in the back &  a lace fabric.
For the base ( the one in checked fabric )
Cut a stripe of maybe 2 " .
and make a running stitch along one side of the stripe
at the end pull the fabric.
And then what you'll have a cute circular flower.
And there your base for this is ready.
( You can also use it as it is, just add a button, my fav ssequence,
or as i have done here
stitch up a pearl)
The lace fabric is just cut circular
you can use a template or go free had as i did.
unruly edges make it look better i feel

Behind just add a small patch of fabric to hold on all the element.



This flower is extremely easy to make,
All you need is circular piece of fabric of varying sizes,
( in a decreasing order)
you can make a template maybe
4-5 templates each of different size.
or go free hand! 
place them in a decreasing order with the smallest circle 
on top! 
stitch it up.
Add your jazz in the centre! 


I 've used it on a clip.
but don't let your imagination get tied down,
use it on a hairband/ brooch/  on a neck piece maybe!!!

Hope you enjoyed!
have fun.
