Fabric Flower

I had posted making these flowers sometime back, but I wasn't sure if the instructions were clear enough. I am not that good in writing, so this time I thought instructions with pictures will be much more clear..:)You can find my original post here. Endless possiblities again in using these pretty flowers:- on hairbands, sweaters, on gifts, etc.


You'll need
--------------
Fabric
Scissors
Needle and thread.
Something to trace your circles with, like a cup.

Steps:
-------
- Trace circles on the fabric using your cup.
- Cut 8 circles out of the fabric.
- Take one circle and fold in half.

- Then fold in half again, so you will have something like this.

-Needle a thread through the corner of the folded circle just like the picture below.

-Repeat with all the remaining 7 fabric circles.

-After you have all the folded fabric in the needle, pull it all the way through . (remember to have a knot at the end of the thread so that the threaded folded circles do not fall through)

- Now to tie all pieces together, loop and pass the needle through from the first to the eigth folded circle.

- Do the loop a couple of times, so that the pieces are secure and tie a knot. Cut the excess thread. You can already see the pom-pom taking shape or you can fluff the pieces by pulling and spreading the pieces till it takes the shape you like.

Some more pictures...:)
