Flower Power

So it's summer, and here's an awesome new free pattern for you guys! You may have seen these flowers on some of the girl hats I make in my shop. Check the hat's out HERE.

The great thing about these flowers is that they fit perfectly to a 7/8" (20mm) button, so all you have to do is sew a button on something and you can change the flowers whenever you want!

Also, don't forget, there is a giveaway going on right now! You could win $50 to my Etsy shop!! If you finish one of these flowers and send me a photo you can get extra entries in!!
