1Choose your fabric
Select a floral fabric that complements your desired aesthetic. Aim for a lightweight cotton or silk to allow for ease of manipulation.
🪡 Arranged with care
2Cut your pieces
Measure and cut the fabric according to your desired dimensions, adding a seam allowance of 1.5 cm (5/8 in) for edges. Pay attention to the grainline for optimal drape.
3Assemble the floral pieces
Carefully layer the floral components, ensuring they are arranged harmoniously. Use pins to hold them in place before proceeding to sew.
4Sew the layers
Using a straight stitch with a length of 2.5 mm, sew around the edges. Remember to backstitch at the start and finish for durability.
5Add labels and finish
Attach your labels to the finished pieces using a small zigzag stitch. This will enhance the artisan feel and add a personal touch.
