Little Flowers


One for her hair, and one for her dress....



Whenever I make a "brooch" or decorative item to add to a garment, I like to attach it to the garment with a safety pin or pin-back instead of sewing it directly to the garment. This way the brooch can be taken off the dress before sending it through the laundry.


The "Baby Deer" dress I sewed last fall has been through the wash countless times, but the flower embellishment still looks great because it is detachable.

  3. I love this idea- how is it made? Is there a tutorial somewhere or a pattern?
