SHEER BLOOMS

I am always inspired to create more flowers.



~~~Sheer Bloom Supply List~~~

Sheer Organza Fabric or fabric of your choice
Scissors
needle and thread (I strand 2 threads together for strength)
buttons, pearls, sequins, brads, ect...




Step 1

Cut 5 3x3 squares of fabric



Step 2

Fold the square in half wrong sides together (right side out) to form a triangle shape. Starting on one end of the triangle sew a running stitch from one point to the opposite point on the open sides of the triangle as shown.



Step 3

Now gather your fabric triangle into a petal shape by pulling the thread through



Step 4

With your square of fabric, repeat step 2 and three on the same thread.



Step 5

Gather your thread once again next to the last petal you just formed...Repeat until you have all 5 petals on the thread.



Step 6

Your string of petals should look like this.



Step 7

Now gather your petals tightly and attach the last petal to the first petal to form the flower by sewing them together..on the backside, which ever you choose to be the back side, make a few stitches to secure. Knot your thread and clip the thread.



Step 8

Now you are ready to sew or glue on your center. In this photo, I sewed on some pearls with stamen. In the title photo, I sewed on some pretty buttons. Get creative with your centers and show me what you can do!!
