- Use a matching color thread to make the petals
Stitch through the base of the triangle, using a thread that matches the color of the lace. Leave a longer thread at the beginning of your stitch. Once you have stitched through the base of the triangle, gather the thread to create ruffles and tie it in a nod.

- Attach the petals to a patch of lace
Cut three circles of the lace you are using. These circles will be the center of the flowers. If you want, you can use different fabric or color instead. Sew the petals to the fabric. We also recommend sewing the petals to each other so that the flowers are sturdier.
