    Default Fabric flowers

    I want to put some 3-D fabric flowers on a quilt border. Can anyone give me ideas where I can find tutorials for them? I don't want them to be too involved or take a long time to make each one. Thanks!

    Can you embroider with your machine? There are easy peasy patterns from Hatched in Africa.

    You can buy a clover Kanzashi maker. One is about 5 bucks but they are super easy to make, hobby lobby and joanns sometimes have them

    Have you ever looked at silk ribbon flowers? Most of them are very easy to make and you wouldn't have too much to invest price wise. Just a thought.

    Eleanor Burn's book "Magic Vine" has beautiful flowers to appliqué, and the instructions make them no fail.
