Description:

Are you over winter? I am! We just had a HUGE blizzard here in NYC and my neighborhood got a whopping 20 inches with the high winds and snow drifts. It's fun for the first day or 2 but when you don't see a snow plow come clear your street for almost 3 days, it's enough to make you wish for spring. Well, winter is here for a little bit longer but there is no reason why we can't brighten our days with some beautiful fabric flowers! I found a few tutorials online and they are so easy! Once you start, you won't be able to stop yourself! And I do realize that this is the Free PATTERN Creation Group and these are tutorials and not patterns but I hope you will consider them anyway! It's so easy, you don't need a pattern!

Here are the links: CD Rosette

Lil Blue Boo fabric flower

Tatertots and Jello rolled flower

Please note that we are just making the flowers and NOT the headband or brooch shown in those tutorials. It's more fun for your partner to be able to choose what to do with them (and there are endless possibilities!)

Here are the details, we will have 2 partners and you will make each of your partners either 2 CD rosettes OR 4 of either LBB or T&J flowers OR 1 CD rosette and 2 LBB or T&J flowers. The CD rosettes are larger than the other 2 flowers so that is why I am not making them equal. You can mix and match between the LBB and T&J flowers since they are relatively the same size (for instance, if you are making 4 smaller flowers, you can do all LBB flowers or 2 LBB and 2 T&J).

Fabric and color will be senders choice but please check your partner's profile for any real color dislikes.

I do believe I covered everything, if not, give me a holla! ;-)

Tutorials are just as acceptable as patterns in this group dear! (";)

This looks very interesting. I need to have a practice before signing up as I've never done anything like this before.
