Description:

Let's get creative with some fabric flowers!! Make something that can spice up those winter hats, clothes, art, hair, purse, or wherever you like to put flowers!

Send 2 flowers to 2 partners (so you will make 4 flowers total). They can be all the same, or all different.

  1. The flowers should be handmade from fabric or fiber 2: Keep the size 2-4 inches in diameter (5-10 cm).
    3: They can be singed, felted, quilted, knit/crochet, embroidered, embellished with beads, buttons - so many options here!
    4: BUT keep the backs relatively flat so the recipient can sew or glue some kind of finding on there like a barrette, clip or pinback. You should not add the hardware, just keep the backs flat.

This swap is sender's choice so you can start as soon as you sign up. But it's nice to check your partner's profile for color choices if you're sure you can finish before the send date.

Need instructions??? google for "fabric flower tutorials for tons of sites. Need inspiration??? peruse fabric flower flickr groups like this one http://www.flickr.com/groups/370507@N22/

I'm sure we're all a trustworthy little group here, but I will check profiles for any crustiness and contact anyone whose profile raises my eyebrows in that Spock-like fashion before assigning partners. ;-)
