摺布包 Folded Roses

正著手作個摺布包給自己當生日禮物
總共摺了4*3*2=24個布花
過程頗漫長的 真的很需要耐心
剛剛完成了表布
I'm making a rose bag for my birthday. A sneak peak:

以下是摺的方法 Here's how to fold the fabric to make roses:
1. 剪15cm*15cm 布片,已含縫份 (Cut 6*6 inches of fabric, seams are included.)
2. 在布正面四邊上各作中心點,並在其左右各2cm處作記號(On right side of the fabric, mark center points on each edge. From the center point, mark four other points which are 0.8" and 1.6" away from it, on both right and left sides.)

3. 照著記號點,依以下圖示摺出三摺,摺好之後縫幾針固定. (Following the marks, fold the fabric as the picture shows. Then stitch to secure the folds.)

4. 完成水平邊之後,再以同樣方法摺垂直邊(Upon finishing the horizontal folds, repeat the above folds and finish the vertical direction.)














建議如圖先燙好摺痕再摺比較整齊.摺好之後就會出現如右上方的圖.再以順時針或逆時針的方向將花"打開",縫幾針固定就行了. (I'd recommend ironing the crease first before folding, so the folds will be straight. After we finish both sides, we get a square with a "bud" in the center. To make roses, we "open up" the "bud" by twisting the center folded part either clockwise or counterclockwise. When you have a satisfactory rose, make a few stitches to secure it.)

其實要先接好布片再開花,包形才不會跑掉.
It's better to stitch together the squares before opening them up, so we get to align and stitch them more easily.)
