Crochet flowers patterns

[Lori27]

Hi, I am looking for a pattern to crochet flowers for imbellishments on cards.
I saw one on a blog, but can't remember where. Thanks!

I hope you're enjoying the weather in Cambria!!! I'm a little jealous right now...at the coast and time to craft!

anyhow, here is Nicole's from Papertrey...I hope it is what you're looking for.

BTW, I have no reason to be jealous...the weather is fabulous today here in the central valley! smiles!

If you scroll down a bit in this forum, you'll find a post entitled, "crocheting your own fleurettes." Folks have posted a ton of links to crocheted flower patterns.

Good luck!

Thanls everyone!! I failed to notice that there was already a post for the Flourettes. I have already crocheted about a dozen flowers for my upcoming club meeting. I think the ladies will be quite pleased.

What are you ladies using to crochet them? Are you using crocheting cotton, embroidery floss, or yarn? I made one using yarn; and, although it came out beautifully, it also turned out huge. Way too big for a card or scrapbook. :confused:

[craftymomto2]

I've used embroidery floss and crochet (bedspread) thread

[Lori27]

I also use crochet cotton size 10. Pearl cotton also works well. I even tried dying white crochet thread with classic ink to match my cards. You must allow for complete drying time, or else you end up with inky fingers!!

Thanks, ladies. I just finished 2 flowers using white crochet cotton and a very small hook. Then I dipped them in some Ranger Wild Plum dye. They're drying now, and they look pretty good.

Thanks to whoever started this post!
I've been looking for patterns for quite a while. I had
some years ago, but have since lost them, so this is great!

While there are some great patterns in the other crocheting flowers thread, and available online. I picked up a book at JoAnns that is entiteled "crochet flowers" It's pink with lots of girly projects on the cover. But it was $9, and i used a 40% off coupon, and has about 10 different patterns and also leaves. And it also has some cute projects as well. Good to have something more visual.

The last one has a great tutorial on a 5 petal flower. After making so many of them, I started making my own patterns too. Hope this helps!

Melissa, you have a very pretty blog. I gotta learn to crochet, I only knit.

Thanks to all who contributed to this thread. I have spent hours this afternoon reading, getting my hooks and yarn out, and crocheting. I haven't crocheted in years. I ended up having to go to the big hook and the bigger yarn to remember and actually see what I was doing. Hopefully, soon I will be turning out the embellishments that I can use for my cards!
