flower pin

This is from my new Japanese craft book, Corsage and Something Like Corsage, which is like the best name ever for a Japanese craft book.

I first tried this really cute frayed petal, loopy middle flower, but it was a total bust. Still not quite sure where I went wrong with that one. So this is mark 2, and I'm really liking it. The fabric is from a swap, which I think is fitting since I'm sending it to someone to atone for being a month overdue on my swap package (so bad). It's great big compared to the other flower pins I've made lately, like 3 or 4 inches across.

OMG, I love it! Love the flower, the fabric, even the button. If you get the ISBN on that book, I'd love to have that as well.
