If you like spring flowers, look out for delicate tulips. Usually they do not delight the eyes for long, so felt tulips will definitely appeal to lovers of these spring flowers. To create a tulip, you need to prepare the following materials and tools:

• felt for flowers (white and bright pink);

• green felt for the formation of leaves and stems;

• bamboo skewers;

• needle with thread;

• scissors;

• paper and pencil.

The tulip formation algorithm includes a number of stages. Let's list them.

• You need to make three patterns from paper (for a bud, leaf and stem). These details must be drawn on paper, transferred to the material and cut out with scissors.

• One tulip will need two leaves. Take the sketch of the sheet, and put it on the green felt, trace along the contour with a ballpoint pen, and cut out two parts from the felt.

• There is only one stem you need to make. For it, you need to take a dense green felt, and cut out the detail.

• The bud will be formed from two pink pieces. Attach the bud piece to the pink felt and cut out two pieces.

• We start assembling the tulip from the stem - take a bamboo stick and wrap it with green felt. Sew along the entire length of the stem, creating stitches over the edge.

• We sew up the stem from below - this way the stick will not fall out.

• Let's move on to the formation of the bud. It is necessary to take two pink parts, and sew them along the edge, while leaving the edges from the bottom not sewn. You can sew either on a sewing machine or by hand.

• Now we turn out the bud and gently straighten it, then it must be tightly filled with padding polyester or holofiber. The filler should fill all the space inside the bud, especially the top.

• Then you can put the bud on the stem, while the bamboo stick should touch the top of the bud.

• Sew on the bud from below to fix it on the stem with pink threads, while you can use regular basting stitches. Then we tighten the bud from below with threads to fix it on the stem. Use small blind stitches, and the edges of the felt at the base of the bud can be safely wrapped inward.

• Moving on to the leaves, cut out two sheets of green felt. We wrap the stem with one sheet, sew the base of the leaf to the stem using green threads, while forming small stitches over the edge.

• Then we move on to the second leaf - we also wrap it around the stem, but place it below the first leaf. The second leaf also needs to be sewn at the base of the stem using green thread.

• take a needle and thread and sew the strip with large stitches where it is fastened with pins;

• now carefully roll the strip into a roll, while forming the flower petals, use a thread with a needle to fasten the petals;
