Haven't seen the tutorial but it looks like a ribbon rose easily made by turning and twisting the fabric- fleece would work well

Looks to me like the wool is felted, then cut into a strip(s) and folded like a ribbon rose -- remember doing this a lot of years ago.

If you google you tube ribbon roses there are a lot of tutorials. Instead of ribbon use the felt.

Very nice!

Really pretty.

It looks like a ribbon rose done out of polar fleece. Cut a piece of the fabric maybe about 1 1/2 inches. You could of course also use felted wool.
Here is a link on how to do ribbon roses, you can just google them and find lots of results.

Oh, I just love roses. I hope someone finds the pattern soon. It is adorable. Thanks for sharing.

That is a neat pincushion. I want to try making one..

This is not the same pattern. The one I have is not made from pieces, it is made from a strip of wool.
