Alright, time to experiment with dress flowers! The first attempt was from a book I have called Kokoro No Te , but it’s a little too pointy… The book example used a lighter fabric, and was only a few inches tall. This one is, well, nearly a foot and made with canvas! Next I went online to look at different DIY flowers, and walked away with a ton of tutorials: Rosette – (tutorial source) Fabric Flower – (tutorial source) Geisha Flower – (tutorial source) Fabric Rose – (tutorial source) Martha’s Silk Flower – (tutorial source) I went with the rosette for now, since it seemed like a good match for the bumpy skirt. Ta da! I did cheat a little though
