Here is a nice easy make for Mothers day that you can do with small bits of fabric from your stash.
To make this lovely corsage all you need to do is cut out 5 or 6 circles of fabric, in various sizes, using a variety of thicknesses and textures, I used a bit of netting to add variety. I also used pinking shears for some to give added interest around the edge.
Sew 4 lines across the circles forming 8 segments
Cut between each line of stitching to just short of the centre.
On the back, pinch each segment together and hand stitch in place to give the flower a 3-dimensional shape
Attach a brooch pin to the back.
Wrap it up nicely and give it to your Mum for Mothers day!
What a great tutorial! Thanks! 🙂
