Look how big the flower was when I was figuring out the pattern!! (this would be a fun idea for a more elaborate flower, layer two flowers of different colors and sew them together!)
It was as big as my cousin's face!! I was NOT expecting it to turn out that large!
And then my Uncle got ahold of it So FUNNY!!!!!!! He is a hoot!
