    Fabric flowers

    I want to put some 3-D fabric flowers on a quilt border. Can anyone give me ideas where I can find tutorials for them? I don't want them to be too involved or take a long time to make each one. Thanks!

    A Good Friend, like an old quilt, is both a Treasure and a Comfort

    Can you embroider with your machine? There are easy peasy patterns from Hatched in Africa.

    You can buy a clover Kanzashi maker. One is about 5 bucks but they are super easy to make, hobby lobby and joanns sometimes have them

    I had never heard of this product Dolphyngrl so I looked for it online and watched the video. These would make adorable headbands for little girls and something to do while watching TV or waiting for appointments.

    Thanks so much for posting this to the Board.

    Have you ever looked at silk ribbon flowers? Most of them are very easy to make and you wouldn't have too much to invest price wise. Just a thought.
