Description

I had a lot of spare fabric, so i drew inspiration from the flowers that geisha wear in their hair. I will try and post a tutorial soon.

Instructions

  1. Small p1020871 1277992975

    You can start with any size circle that you want. I prefer a circle with a 4cm radius. The blue and purple flower was made with a 4cm radius. The red one with a 3cm radius.

  2. Small p1020872 1277994059

    Once you have decided on a circle size . Choose some fabric and pin the paper circle onto the fabric.

  3. Small p1020873 1277994246

    Then cut out the circle. This doesn't have to be very neat but try to keep to the edge.

  4. Small p1020875 1277994504

    Then take out all of the pins and you will be left with a circle of fabric.

  5. Small p1020879 1277995223

    Then take some thread and sew around the edge of the circle. This also doesn't have to be super neat.

    After you have finished sewing around the fabric. Sart to tug the string so that the fabric starts to gather and bunch.

    Then take a bit of the stuffing and place it into the centre of your pouch.

    Then start to pull some more until you can't see the stuffing.

    Then split each section into two and a flower will start to form.
