So I tried lots of different things the other day, and one of them was rolled ribbon or fabric flowers. I have this cool fabric from SU, plus coordinating fabric covered brads, so I thought I'd give it a try, and this is the result.
There are lots of tutorials on this, just google rolled ribbon or fabric flowers. I don't remember exactly which tutorial I used. I'm not thrilled with how it turned out; I think I need a lot more practice! Maybe I should also try it with ribbon.
This next one is a simple yo-yo. I die cut some of the fabric with my circle nesties and ran a running stitch around the outside of the circle and drew it up like a little drawstring bag. I added a brad. I think it's very cute! You can make them just about any size; this one used my next to largest Nestie and is about 1.25" in diameter.
Well, I had fun trying something new! Hope you've enjoyed this post--thanks for stopping by!

Those are beautiful! I had no idea that SU sold fabric. I have been under a rock for sure!
I was under the same rock Susan;) Love these Amy! I think they both turned up really nice.
