Mizz Boss giving Kathy some instructions

1-30-13:  Jerri taught us to make these great flowers today in crafts.  She also gave us a website to refer to when making them.  bittybitsandpieces.blotspot.com/2010/01/kanzashi-flower-tutorial.html

Linda, Connie, and Shirlene pinning their pedals

Jerri showing Cindy the next step

fold in half diagnonally

then bring each point to top from the bottom

like so

then flip to backside and bring corners to center

you'll see pleats -- this will be front of your pedal

pin like this, then tac with thread

then straighten up the raw end w/scissors

(next time, we may use hot glue rather than needle/thread)

then hot glue felt and a pin on the back of flower

put some hot glue down the center of flower, then glue on button
