In this video we use basic threading and stitching techniques to create simple 3D raffia flowers for Mothers Day.
Raffia Flowers
Step 1
Cut a 20cm x 5cm piece of thick coloured card
Step 2
Wrap your raffia around the piece of card about 15
– 20 times and tape down the end piece
Step 3
Thread another piece of raffia through the wrapped
raffia using aplastic needle
Step 4
Remove the tape form the raffia and gently slide
the raffia off the piece of card
Step 5
Tie off the piece of raffia you threaded through
Step 6
Using the plastic needle, work around the flower to separate the petals by looping the raffia through the centre of the flower. Tie the ends together and trim.
