Crochet Multi-Head Small Rose Applique Assembly

1. Start by tidying up. Hide and trim any excess threads from the leaves and base.
2. Wrap each rose. Gently fold the petals to create a rounded, blooming shape.
3. Attach the leaves to the base. Arrange them in a natural, slightly overlapping pattern around the edge of the circular base. Use a small amount of fabric glue or a few stitches to secure them in place.
4. It's time to add your roses. Start with the largest Rose A in the center, then arrange the medium Rose B and smaller Rose C petals around it. Play with the arrangement until you're happy with the look. Once satisfied, glue or stitch the roses in place, nestling them among the leaves.

Assembly Tips

• For a permanent finish on items that will be washed frequently, sew the roses and leaves to the base with a few small stitches in addition to using hot melt adhesive.
• If you prefer a neater back, use a small scrap of fabric or felt behind the base to hide glue and thread ends.
• Keep your tension consistent while crocheting each rose and leaf so pieces sit uniformly when assembled.

Notes

Crochet Tips:

When crocheting flowers, you need to use the same amount of force during the process so that the flowers will be the same size when crocheted.
