100 Flowers to Knit and Crochet

 I'm looking for another couple of nice flowers to make crochet brooches for my coats. I like this one below called "pelargonium" and I like the "ruffled rose", and I like the "tea rose".....
 ...and I love these little rosebuds...and the centifolia rose.
Ooh! I'm going to be busy, and need more coats :)

Crochet Cushion Update

I gave the flowers to my mum - and she loved them, but as predicted, didn't care much for the yellow flowers. She has sewn up all the flowers and is a few short for the layout she is doing, so asked me to do some more.

Now that I have made quite a few of them, they only take about 10 minutes each to make.

Cheering up a Winter Coat

These little flowers are quite easy to make. Once you have got the hang of it, they are quite addictive.

The way I have sewn this one up is reminiscent of those big huge overblown summer roses. Strange colour for a rose though :) I just wanted something to match this green tweedy coat.
