Handmade Fabric Patriotic Poppies

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! Today,

I'm so excited to share a few Patriotic crafts that I have been working this weekend, for my Summer décor.

***

Today I'm sharing how I have made a few fabric Poppies to add into my patriotic vignettes.

First, I started cutting 3" circles out of thrifted red fabric

With a needle and red thread I gathered around the edge

  and tied it off.

As you can see I created a yo-yo

Next, 

I added a black button to the yo-yo

added a wire stem

 

stitched around the wire to secure the wire.

I haphazardly, made a few stitches to secure the wire stem on to the flower

 Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to stop by to see what I have been up to this week.  

 I would love to hear what you have been doing this week, whether thrifting or creating, to make your home yours.

So until my next post...... 

May God Bless You and Your Family,
