FLOWERS!!!
My name is Roberta, and I'm a flower-aholic. I will not be seeking any help for my addiction. Instead, I will try to get others addicted too. Mwaa-haa-haa!! I was seeking new and fun ways to make fabric flowers today, and I came across this super fun one (the site I got it from: http://www.graceviolet.com/2009/04/embellishment-week-rosette-tank.html) and had to share. I like the shabby-chic look, and this flower fits the bill. My mind is already spinning with the possibilities for this flower.
Take a scrap of fabric,
Cut 4 rough circles. I think slightly random sizes look good. And make them a little rough around the edges.
Cut about half way through the circle.
Start overlapping! It seems to look and work best by always adding on top of the last one you added.
Scrunch and bunch them together so they ruffle up.
Sew together in a spiral pattern, from middle to about half way-ish out from the edges.
I wet them a little and threw them in the drier to ruffle them and fray the edges a little. Fun!!
