Corsages

Second attempt at making the corsages from Homemade today; for a corsage swap on Swap-bot. My first attempt (here) turned out to be rosettes, as I thought at the time that I might have cut the circles to make up the corsage too small. So this time I cut out large circles, followed the instructions and it ended up too big I think, looking like a wind damaged chrysanthemum, where the petals won’t stay up properly. Luckily, although I needed to make only one corsage for swap-bot I had decided to make two, one for the swap, one for me, so I’ll have to have the wind damaged chrysanthemum and the second one, well, I kept it very simple, not cutting into the fabric, instead just scrunching the circles in the middle and I think it looks a lot nicer.
