Hi all, how about?
I've always said that life is like a book and its chapters are our experiences. Well, now I am in a chapter where I have many responsibilities of all kinds, family, work, etc. so it takes me time to do many things I like.
But today, here I am sitting at the computer to make this post.
Last year, I made an entry where I taught some beautiful flowers made of cloth. Here I show the picture to remember it.
Well I met some people have asked me how it did, and I tried to summarize in a simple tutorial.
Before proceeding let me make clear that this tutorial I found online a long time and know about its author. If I say all this is why I have found many cases where they have attributed the merit of a tutorial, when the author was someone else. All copy, I the first. I like getting lost in the blogs and get ideas and then adapt them to my taste, and always try to change something, but what will never be attributing merit is not mine.
Sometimes a great idea, is the result of much sacrifice and many hours of work. And I think unfair to have people who claim credit that is not theirs.
Well and after this roll that I have just released (I hope you know apologies for it) go to the tutorial which is what interests us.
going for everyone, but especially to Melissa, the Dominican Republic, who kindly asked me to help as do the flowers, and left me a nice comment on my blog.
Let it!!
2 circles are cut from the same cloth. The measure will vary according to how big you want the flower. I leave it to each one.
Before cutting the fabric, be sure to leave a seam allowance. With 1 cm. or 1.5 cm. we will have more than enough.
We take the two circles of fabric and put them face to face, so be back to our view in this way.

I look with pins and sew by machine. It also can be sewn by hand, but there will always be stronger if you sew by machine.
is very important to a small opening and then to turn around.
When will you turn around more or less well.
And now proceed to fill it with "flock." In Catalonia it is called so, and not as I say elsewhere. However, no longer "fill for pillows."
Nothing to fill ....!!!!
I imagine, for whom the unknown, you might say that the amount you will have to flock to. That depends on what apretadido whatsoever ye would that be.
I only I can give you my humble advice. If the flower is going to use as a cushion for needles, interested in is quite tight so that when the needle is punctured into place.
If we want to use as flower brooch, we can afford not to put so much, even if well apretadido are then more beautiful and more whole. Especially since this does not give the impression of "a deflated balloon."
When we have completed, we have to close the opening we had left. We will use the hidden point.
If you do not know do not matter, stitch with short stitches to make it more polished.
'll be something like this. With hands I can mold a bit to make it as round as possible. It need not be a perfect circle, because as you can later verify any defects will be corrected.
then threading a sewing needle and thread safe. The one I use is the embroidery thread, since it is more resistant and so avoid breakage. We
and prick the center, pulling the needle through the center of the bottom.
The thread we bring it back to us, and we are back where we started DJing by tightening a bit the thread.
This step will do two or three times so that it firmly.
Always starting from the center we move a little on the web and we want to form a petal, and do the same operation as before.
And so until we have all the petals. I usually do 5 or 6 flower petals.
This time I made it with five petals and are thus.
To add the finishing touch of a button coséis him in the middle. Although I think it is very important and I value very much, everyone let your imagination and give them your personal touch.
As this flower will use it as a cushion for the needles I have used a motif fabric seam.
If want to become a pin, only have to sew back a needle / unmissable for brooches and go.
Well, I hope I have served my tutorial. Like everything in life can improve, but I do so and left me a beautiful flower.
go and make your beautiful garden!
