This flower is worked in two parts and sewn together. You can really play with color and embellishment on this one. The blue flower in the book has embroidery to accent the centers of the petals, while the others use buttons.

I’m working on an alternative to the purchased stamens.

Please make this correction to the pattern:

page 49, Top Petals, Rnd 2:
add “sk 1 sc” after the ch 3 as shown below:

Rnd 2: ch 1, (asterisk) sc in next st, ch 3, sk 1 sc;
