I really like fabric flowers and want to include them in my projects. The only problem is I can only find ones that are more on the shabby or elegant side. I took it as a challenge to make a grungy version. So I armed with Tim Holtz Eclectic Fabric, a glue gun, felt, and YouTube. They were very addicting to make. I started off making a bakers dozen of them. I know that I will be making more and trying different styles.
For the centers I use medium and small chipoard gears, propellers, and loose parts using distress stains and patina gilder's paste to color. I finished off with Prima metals.

Love, love, love how your handmade flowers turned out. The centers go perfectly with TH fabric. xoxox
