Thanks for appreciating the flowers. There was no pattern.
We were given a piece of fabric for the basket and were told to bring the backgound ( all sewn together) to class along with some floral fabrics. Our instructor then did a demo on broderie perse, a yo-yo and the tulip-like flowers. She also showed us how to do the yellow sunflowers and then told us to start playing and have fun. Some of the other ladies in class preferred a more organised look and found inspiration in flower arrangement books. I just went though my piles of old magazines and found instructions for 3D flowers to make a variety of flowers. When I had the flowers, I started adding them to the basket and then had loads of fun with the embroidery and beading. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn many new skills.
