I love giving a handmade gift to friends and family each year and this year is no different. I decided to give them these Quilted Flowers to attach to their purses or luggage.
I used the Flower Folds Bigz XL die to cut the flowers out of fabaric and unbleached batting. I then used a really old sewing maching to do the stitching. Don't look too closely at the stitching as it is terrible. I haven't used a sewing maching for over 10 years!!! These also use the Chocolate Chip Double Stitched Grosgrain and Old Olive 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain ribbons.
Here is the one I have in my stamp room on one of my cupboards. It uses the Rose Red Double Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon.
and here is the one I have on my Big Shot Bag
I think we should make these in a class sometime…..stay tuned for that!!!
