No Sew Fabric Flowers


These no sew flowers are my favorite go-to embellishment for all kinds of projects.  They are super simple to make and so stinkin' cute!  I thought I would share with you all are simple they are to make.  Below is a list of items you will need to get started.


  1. Fabric of your choice cut 1 1/2 inches wide and length varies depending on how large you would like your flower.
  2. Piece of felt cut in a 2x2 inch square.
  3. Scissors
  4. Glue gun
  5. Embellishments of your choice. (ie. brads, buttons)     
             
This is what your fabric and felt should look like as you get started.


Step 1:  Tie knot in one end of your piece of fabric.



Step 2:  Glue knot in to the center of your piece of felt.

Step 3:  Roll fabric as tight or loose as you want and begin wrapping it around the knot; gluing as you go.


Step 4:  Once you've finished wrapping, glue the end of the fabric under the flower.  Then cut off all excess felt.

Step 5:  It should look like this when finished.  Now you get to embellish!  I chose a sparkly brad.  All you have to do is glue it into the center and your finished.

ALL DONE!!  Super cute!!

These super cute flowers can be used to embellish so many things.  My favorite use for them is wreaths and headbands.  Examples of both are pictured below.
