**This tutorial is intended for personal use only.**
Create something sweet for that cute little one in your life.
You will need five 2" X 2" fabric squares, a 5/8" circle of felt, and a bobby pin. You will also need a hot glue gun, two buttons, and a needle and thread.
*To create the petals, place the first fabric square onto an ironing surface, right side facing down.
*Fold one side to the center, press flat.
*Fold the other side to the center, press flat.
*Fold the raw edges together. Do not press. This will make the petals too flat. Repeat with the rest of the petals.
With needle and thread, take a running stitch at the raw edge of the first petal.
Repeat until you have all 5 petals on the thread.
Tie both ends of the thread together to form a circle of petals.
Sew a coordinating stack of buttons to the center of the flower.
Slide the felt round between both prongs of the bobby pin, crinkled side of the pin facing up.
Place a small glob of hot glue onto the center of the felt circle.
Glue the bobby pin to the back of the flower, concealing the raw edges.
There you have it. This is so simple that you'll probably want to make oodles.
Have a wonderful day!

Those are adorable. How have you been?? I've missed you on fb.
Hola, sobre su tutorial, si usted se pasea por la red, no es la única que lo ha publicado, el problema es el idoma, hago referencia a su página por la idea, pero no he tomado ninguna de sus fotos y respeto muchisimo su trabajo, si con ello le molesta no publique tutoriales y nadie la copiara, con todo mi respecto, yo lo hice un poco a mi manera y creo que usted deberia sentirse orgullosa de que yo haga referencia a su pagina, en vez de amenazarme con la denuncia.
Que tenga un feliz dia.
Y añado, no me cuestiono de donde saca usted sus ideas.
Quedese tranquila, ya retire mi post de mi blog.
Enhorabuena por sus trabajos y que le vaya muy bien.
Saludos
I just discovered your blog, it's beautiful and very interesting. Thank you very much

Hi, your blog is marvelous. I am a new follower of your blog. This is sooooo cute this hairpin. I have a lovely daughter 2 and a half who hates hairpins. I will make her one of these. Hope she will love it.
I started making those and how fun. I promoted them on my blog. We are making little dresses to send to the Dominican Republic and Haiti and I am cutting out squares so that we can make a set for each dress.
Thanks for all your tips! I love them!
