I just eyeball it and make a few different sizes. Then I grab the smallest one, bunch it in the middle, and sew the "tip" together a little ways up from the bottom. There is really no proper way to do it, since the imperfection is the beauty...lol! Once one is bunched and sewn, I pinch the next one (sometimes 2 at a time) in the middle around the first one, and sew them together at the same time as I bunch it and sew the tip. I keep going(smallest to biggest) until all the layers are bunched and sewn, all the while making sure they are all sewn together...at the end, the bottom 1 cm is sewn together, and the rest flares out. Its really quite easy since it takes no precision. I hope some of that made sense!! The more you pinch, the better they look.Laurahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10931353007775217327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4963005021062655920.post-3415328826105099362011-04-06T19:45:07.619-07:002011-04-06T19:45:07.619-07:00How did you make the flower Laur??~CyndiHow did you make the flower Laur??<br>~CyndiCyndihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16974937361129030148noreply@blogger.com
