This pattern was just what I needed! I made only 12 petals per flower because I was using size 10 thread and a size 7 steel hook.
I made two pair of earrings as gifts for friends. I improvised a different yellow center because I wanted to sew them down on both sides of the flower. That made them basically reversible and therefore pretty even when viewed from the back. I used plain, gold-toned fish hook earring findings.
In gratitude for this lovely pattern, I’ll eventually post my photos on Ravelry, Pinterest, and Instagram.
Thanks again for the nice pattern!
I am glad you like it, thank you
These beautiful flowers are bringing me in a spring mood. Thnaks for sharing.
Have a great day, Margaret
