born2bead said... This bag turned out fantastic! It's amazing how much quilting fabric can add up, huh? I love the flower. It really adds something to the bag. Can you tell me where you found instructions to make it? 5/28/10 3:11 PM
ryansmumAria said... hERE IS a website where you can learn to make these japanese flowers called Kanzashi. I bought the book as well.
I do plan on posting under "tips" so others can learn how to make this flower. This was my first attempt before the book. I now know how to make them so they are much prettier. Thanks for the compliment.
