Cara Membuat Bunga besar dari Flanel

A few months ago my sister found a really cute burlap table runner with three fabric flowers on each end. She loved it, but didn’t really love the crazy-expensive price tag. So she asked me to re-create the flowers to attach to her handmade burlap table runner and this is what I came up with.

Here is what you’ll need:

:: fabric {linen, canvas, wool, felt – something slightly sturdy}

:: template {download here or at the bottom of post}

:: scissors, needle, thread

:: something pretty for the center {rhinestone, old brooch, a button}

STEP ONE: print template and cut out petals

There are two templates available for download: small and large. I used the small for this example and the large for the pillows. You can certainly adjust the size and shape to your liking and disregard the template altogether if you prefer.

STEP TWO: cut petals

I fold the fabric so that I only have to cut once.

You’ll need FOUR large petals and THREE small

STEP THREE: gather the center of each petal

Make a running stich through the center, then pull the thread taught, wrap it around the center a few times and make another stitch through the center. Knot it off and cut the thread.

You’ll have this:

STEP FOUR: stack the petals

Start with the large,

then layer on the small.

STEP FIVE: stitch the petals together

Just stitch back and forth through the center several times to secure the layers.

STEP SIX: embellish the center

a little dab of hot glue does the trick.

This size is just right to attach to a headband

And do you remember this cute flower pillow? It is part of this month’s giveaway {have you entered for a chance to win? You can do it here}. I made it out of felt then stitched directly onto the pillow.
