Making Lavender Potpourri’s |
Supplies you’ll need:
A scrap of fabric
Bowl or plate to trace around about 5 ½” across
Needle and thread
Lavender about a ¼ cup for each potpourri
Decorating items : I used ribbon and flowers..
Step one |
1) Trace a circle on the back side of your scrap fabric
Step two |
2) Now knot thread and stitch a long running stitch a ¼”
from the edge leaving the thread and needle attached.
Step 3 |
3) Place the lavender on the inside in middle of the
stitching.
Step Four |
4) Then pull the needle so the thread gathers the fabric
around the lavender.
Step Five |
5) Now stitch the gathered opening closed by stitching
several stitches through the gathered fabric in different directions and knot.
Step Six |
6) At this point you can either sew on your decorations or
use a hot glue gun.
