Today's experiment in 3D applique - not 100% successful!

The petals and leaves are all made separately and turned through for nice neat edges. They are gathered to give the realistic curls. Unfortunately there was no way I was going to be able to applique a centre over all of that bulk so I resorted to a covered button and hot glue.

I like it! It would be less bulky with organza.

That was my original plan, but I fancied the extra twist of using prints.
