Category: Arts & Crafts Time frame: an afternoon
Age: 5-16 years Where: indoor
Level: medium What you need: easy to get items
Keywords: present, selfmade, brooch, flower, heart, scent cushion

 what you need:

needle, thread, material, pins, paper, pencil

+ for the heart: cotton wool as a filler and some granes of lavendel

cut a heart and then sew it on reverse - leave a little hole on one of the straight sides - then change sides again, fill the heart with cotton wool and lavendel and then sew the rest together

+ for the flowers:  brooch support

for the flowers you need to make yourself a shape like seen on the picture, cut the material and put pins in to fix it. Then sew it on both sides with the machine. After that you sew by hand, depending on which side you sew you get a big flat flower like thee yellow one (wavy side was sewed), or a small high flower like the red one (the straight side was sewed).Having finished that you can fix the brooch support!
