Vintage brooches do the rounds

These vintage brooches are made from the simplest sewing technique and are a great way of recycling small pieces of fabric. I have done this workshop for a children's birthday party, Quorn Brownies and our Stride group at Rawlins. Beginners to sewing can easily cover messy stitches and the resulting flower can be worn as a brooch or hairclip (as seen here). Using a button in the centre gives a lovely old-fashioned look. Email me for full instructions if you wish.
