Cut your strip of fabric to be about an inch wide, and as long as you want it. It should be at least a foot long. The longer the fabric strip, the larger your flower will be.
Tie a knot at the end of the strip.
Twist the strip of fabric, and start winding it around the knot. If you wind it tighter, it will give a very different look than if you wind it loosely. I like the look of both.
Secure the fabric every inch or so, with hot glue or thread.
Add a cute rhinestone, button, or bead for an embellishment, or keep it plain!
You can add a clip on the back to make it into a hair piece, or attach it to a headband.
They’re also very cute on clothing, purses, pillows, you name it!
Great tutorial. Thanks

Yet another beautiful way to make a cloth flower! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteEasy and adorable, just up my alley. I have been teaching hand sewing to girls in a Keepers At Home group. This would be a great project to add. Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteI just made a different kind of sewn rosette for the link party--for a Vintage Fabric Rosette Wreath! This is a great method.
ReplyDeleteThis turned out great! I have been looking for a fairly simple flower to use for a project I am working on. I need a zillion flowers and this looks like an easy solution!!
