Fabric flowers are fun to make, a great way to use scraps, easily dress up an outfit, and are terrific gifts. How to get started?
Paganoonoo has a set of illustrated instructions that walk you through every step. You will learn about sizing, fabrics, construction techniques and more.
This example uses shirting fabric from a man's shirt (perfect way to use leftovers from making Paganoonoo garments) and cashmere salvaged from a moth eaten sweater:

Adding a seed head finishes off the flower.
In this case cashmere was selected in a matching color. Other options include a carnation like center and one that looks more like stamens.
The cashmere was stuffed and pulled into a circle.
Once attached the flower is complete.
It can be attached with a safety pin
