Flowers flowers flowers!!

Today I got to have a little craft morning with my friend Becky who's moving back to Utah. It makes me very sad. She was also Bekah's extremely helpful and amazing babysitter. We're going to miss her and her family!!!

Anyway, we were making flowers and she wanted the tutorial for a really cute flower that I wore once. I didn't know how to make it since I borrowed it from my sister...So, in my search for that one certain tutorial...I found a few others that I want to try.

Even though they require a needle and thread they don't sound to difficult. 

I made two like this but I didn't sew them I just gathered it and hot glued it so it would have the same look...but that is also how I got my burned fingers. I really dont' like using a needle and thread when I don't have to. Just ask Victory, he's been missing a button on his suit for over a year now. :)

Not a flower but CUTE...I might have to try this!



Felt flower...finally found it!! Maybe I'll have to pull out the needle and thread because this is a cute flower!

At some point I'll upload a few more pictures...I've got a few cute ones of Bekah at the zoo and a brand new purchase. But until then, I hope you have a good one!

I'm glad you posted this: I've been wondering how people make these. I'll stash it away for someday when I have time...

I love these flowers, but I am not crafty. I don't own a sewing machine but I just might have to try those fabric flowers anyway with just a needle and thread. Very cute. My problem is finding time to craft with a two year old who wants to do whatever I'm doing!
