This project uses the dimensional applique "Medium Dimensional flower petals" (JM46b), and Small Dimensional flower petals (JM46c). Applique stitching goes faster if you pre-cut your applique pieces. For this example, I used eight small flower pieces, and seven medium flower pieces. (See the related project "Making Applique Templates" if you need help pre-cutting your applique pieces).
Stack petals into flowers. In this example, most of the flowers were created with one medium petal with a small petal piece on top. The flower on the front center of the basket is one small petal piece.
On a tear away stabilizer, embroider flower centers (JM47) through the petal stacks. In the front section of the basket, the center flower is made by putting two finished two-petal flowers side-by-side, and placing one small petal piece slightly lower, between the two flowers, and then embroidering the center design (JM47) through all the layers.
Use glue or thread to attach the flowers to the basket. In this basket, the front flowers were attached with glue, and the flowers on the handle were sewn on.
