Cut a strip of the center felt color 3″x1″

Cut 2 green leaves

Cut multiple circles of both sizes…I think I used about 5-6 of each size.

(all of these pieces are in the pattern in case you just want to use that to cut them out!)

Cut your circles as shown, for the petals. Discard the center pieces.
