This fabric flower is very similar to Fabric Flower Version 1. Take a look real quick if you missed it. The fabric I used is Seafoam Seaweed Wrap from the Sanctuary collection by Michael Miller.
–Supplies–
Fabric
Hot Glue Gun
Felt Circle
For the version 1 flower I scalloped the edges. I made this flower with plain circles. Scalloped edges still look cute on this flower, I just wanted to show you a different look.
Version 1 flower has 8 petals and a button center. Version 2 has 9 petals and no button. It’s crazy that it can have such a different look with only one more petal huh?
I cut a circle pattern out of construction paper and put it on top of folded fabric. The circle for this flower is 2 1/4″ in diameter.
My fabric was folded three times to get this many circles. I know there are more than 9, I actually made two flowers. 
Fold each circle in half and put a dab of hot glue on the center of the fold.
Fold the circle in half again over the glue.
Glue the folded petals to a felt circle. Make two layers of four petals.
Glue the ninth petal in the center and fluff the flower up a bit.
There you have it! Another fun fabric flower that is so easy to do!

I love this blog!! And Ribbon Retreat has such great stuff!
How do I keep the fabric from fraying around the edges?
You could use Fray Check, but this flower is kinda supposed to have a little fray.
OMG I am in love with the Ribbon Retreat and all of these cool bow ideas. Can you marry a blog. LOL Anyways amazingly awesome bows. Kudos
Have you ever used these to sew onto a tank or tee? If so, how did you do it? LOVE the fabric on here…I must have missed the memo that TRR had fabric.
) I’m in so much trouble now!!
Hi Jennifer! Cherie actually sewed her Fabric Flowers Version 1 onto a knit tee, and it turned out so cute! You can see how she did it on her Adding Fabric To A Knit post. It is so cute! I definitely want to give it a try.
I really love all this ideas, it is just perfect for a beginner like me.
thanks a lot.
dios mio estoy encantada gracias x compartir ojala pudiera ver mas de todo lo q tienes
Great instructions. May I suggest two tips: when working with hot glue, use a damp sponge, so you don’t burn your fingers. The other tip, when frayng your fabric,try to use the blue part of the flame, that is the lower one, you won’t burn your fabric! Just some tips that have Belén helpful for me. TY
Thanks Marilu!
Love this and simple instructions to follow.
