Super fun, and easy looking (we’ll see in practice, though, right?).
The Garden Party Handbag is cute!
any chance there are tutorials for making some of these flowers anywhere? I just love them.
I love the flower on the Garden Party Handbag one and I think it’s a excellent example of something with a flower theme that doesn’t turn out too girly. Stylish!

Cool contest! Cute entries!!!! I would hate to be the judge! ;o)
these are so neat. I love making flowers for my tote bags and blouses.
i am LoViNg all the flowers!!! so spring-y!
I love the skirt with the pocket. My niece would be so cute in it!
I love all the bright colors of the flower on the gardenparty handbag. I made a purse with some of that line. I could make a cute flower with my scraps.
These designs remind me of a craft I did as a little girl. It was winding wool around many pegs sticking up on a circular disc. When all the petals were ready, you stitched around the center of the flower to hold the whole flower in shape and then released from the pegs. I made thousands of these!
i really inspired. I am so glad to found all the tutorial here. I already get my butt up and started making my own flowers!
