Ok now let's look at what it takes to make a flower.
First you cut out a flower shape. The shape can be anything you want it to be.
Here you can see how to draw a flower petal. Starting at the top left I drew a curved line, Not hard to do. Then I drew a curved line back down on the right side. The petals don't have to be the same. They should be in the same size reasonably tho.

Here is my first petal - 2 layers of fabric

Place the 2 pieces face to face and sew from the bottom edge around the petal til you get back to the bottom. Make sure you leave an opening to turn the petal right side out.

Here it is turned right side out.

I tucked the edges of the bottom of the petal in so I would have a smaller end on the petal

Here you can see the petal with the sides tucked in at the bottom. I sewed across the bottom so it would stay put. Now you can sew around the edge leaving it as it is.

Or you can pull the tucked in parts back out with a seam ripper for a more rounded look to the bottom. Sorry the pic is so blurry.

I sewed around the edge with red thread but you could match your thread if you don't want it to show up. Then I sewed down the center and along each side of the line. This creates a look of stamens. I also used French knots at the end of each line, You can use a fabric pen to imitate this if you like or skip it if you don't want it ,

Here is 3 petals sewn together. I sewed where the petals overlapped. then at the bottom I sewed across to give it some stability so the petals would stay together.

Here I pulled the two sides apart so I could clip one side for turning it.

Here I cut two pieces of yellow for the center. Place them face to face and sew all around the edge.

Turn it right side out and sew it onto the flower petals.
