Tips to Remember

  • Be sure to use a heavy duty or strong thread when hand gathering and pull tight to form the base and gather the petals.
  • Follow the placement lines on the base pattern pieces. If it helps, hand sewing the flower to the base is a great option.
  • Remember to trim your seams. Reducing the bulk will create beautifully sewn flowers.
