Blooming Brooches......Class Prep


The Permission 2 Play instructors

gathered together to create

Blooming Brooches










Debbie is leading this class offering.

She invited us over for a day of play!


Debbie's Class Samples



Here are the class supplies:


Artificial silk flowers

The thrift stores are loaded with these!



Take the flower stems apart:


You end up with a pile that looks like this!






Debbie also had flower shapes 

cut from home dec fabrics,

cut with her AccuQuilt Die Cut machine.





Silk Leaves





Buttons





Glue Guns



Now.....build your Blooming Brooch:


Begin with a leaf...





Add a large flower shape...





Add a medium flower shape...



Debbie recommended we work on more than

one flower at a time as we design:


Here are 3 flowers......in progress






The button centers have been added,

we also glued a pin back to the back side.

They are done!




As you can see,

we had a great time playing!





These Blooming Brooches can be

tied to a package, worn as a pin, 

clipped on a scarf,

attached to your purse, worn in your hair, etc.





Gather your friends together and enjoy a

playful and creative day

making Blooming Brooches
