Hand Made flowers at Craft-Room Challenge

I just love making flowers but I had never made these before so this challenge at Craft-Room Challenge was a good time to have a go. They are a great way to use up oddments of ribbon and bits and bobs for the centres. The petals are made one at a time just with two simple folds of a piece of ribbon and the leaves are just made the same as one petal. I couldn't find a tutorial for them but I am sure there will be one somewhere. I got the idea from some flowers my daughter gave to me a while ago.


I found a tutorial for flowers almost the same as these here

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog.
