Sew the Flower

Step 1

Fold the fabric strip in a zig zag consistingof nine 2-wide folds making sure that

folded edges stack on top of each other You

may have about frac12 of extra fabric after

making the foldsmdashthis extra length was for

wiggle room Cut off the extra length of

fabric (if any)

Step 2

Beginning at one folded edge about frac12

from straight edge cut a rounded m shape

from the fabricmdasheach hump of the M will

form a petal If you dont feel comfortable

winging it draw a template of your m

shape on a 2-wide strip of paper then place

it over the fabric as a guide

Step 3

Unfold the strip Thread your needle and

baste straight stitches all the way up the

long straight edge of the strip Pull thread

very tight to gather the center of the flower





Page 5 of 5

Step 4 Overlap the short ends of the fabric slightly

to form the flower shape then turn the

flower over and tack the center gathers in

place

Step 5

Layer a button on top of the flower and sew

the button and flower to your hat
