these are wonderful, I will have to try your technique. I am looking for flower idea’s for my daughters formal dress for the spring. Do these work better in larger sizes, or how small can you go? Love the bolero as well, (my daughter won’t like it as much as I do!) S

Hi!
Love your site! I am amazed that you are on a farm and with such a passion for sewing!!! You go!!! Awesome! I have always found the best people in any field of endeavor are not in New York City, but all around us.
On this tutorial, I am confused. You have the pins on the left side and the folded side, as well. Do I sew on both those sides? Oh, never mind! I just figured it out. I have MS and I have trouble understanding simple things. Hey, thanks for this. The only other flowers that I love to make are at http://www.mommymakesroses.com. I found her instructions for free on the Martha Stewart website. I have never seen anyone make these before. Do you make others? Would love to know.

This will go into my “Things to Keep Grandchildren Busy” file. After enough time with Dora and Diego, they need to use the brain and hands for a bit. Cordially, Nehmah

I’v not done it with chiffon- I think it may be a touch too light. Try underlining it with some other fabric to give it some body. And yes- do not stop the stitching.

I must be the only one that didn’t get it right! I’m also using chiffon… is the running stitch all the way across the 2 sides without stopping? Or is it 2 separate lines of sewing? Anyone done this with chiffon???

Linda, the bolero is self designed, but I think there are likely enough pictures for you to be able to draft it yourself if you are in any way draft savy.

Remember this bolero?
That is exactly the collar my daughter is looking for for her maid of honour dress for her sister’s wedding on Dec 31.
Did you design this yourself? or is there a pattern? Love the look of this….could start skirt part at bottom of this top (I think?)
