37638I think it wonderful that you are taking the time to make beautiful flowers. How did you get them to keep there shape?
3308They are all lovely, I'd be happy to be gifted any one of these. You can probably use up all your bits of ribbon and let the ladies choose their favorite.
8228The old tradition is to wear White if your Mom has passed away and Red if she is still alive.
I stopped doing that years ago....but the tradition is still popular in different places in the Southern USA.
If I was making one for myself it would be a natural color. In these I like the two-toned pink in front and the pink and yellow on the right back. That one looks like a peace rose.
I would LOVE THE INSTRUCTIONS for these.

54617They are all very nice, did you gather and then sew the ribbon? Jan
4131They all look beautiful but I like the ones that are colours of real roses.I think the colours of the roses for each lady would depend on the colour of their outfits ,worn on Mothers Day.
25212They all look beautiful. I'm sure they will be appreciated. Hugs Yvonne

thank you. I just want them to feel good specially those who lost their husband.
3604381549Those are very pretty! I like the pink ones,red, white & the sheer purple. Actully they are all very pretty!!!! Have fun making flowers, all the ladies are sure to love them!
5552They are all very pretty. My favorite is the left purple one.
27683I like the more natural colored ones. I don't care for the blue or purple ones. The 2-toned ones are especially nice. Just my opinion. Are yougoing to add any leaves to them? Good luck, it sounds like it could be a big project.

thank you, I will add leaves to make it more realistic. Yes, it seems specially I have no idea how many women we have in the church.
25510They look excellent. With everyone having a favorite color you have something for everyone.
89895Very pretty all of them so can't decide. I agree with most it depends on the persons own color preference.
86901They are all lovely - depending on the person's own color choice - but I love the peach and teal one - but the two tone ones or ribbon with several colors are stunning.
211078I think they are all good, depending on what the ladies are wearing. I take it everyone will be wearing different colour outfits, so a range of colours good. It's so nice to give, their faces will be will light up with the gifts.
Cheers Dimity
315Dear "Buanlester" - personally I love the lower purple, pink with dark edges and blue. Well done, love Chris
234256They look great and I would make all the colors. How are they finished so they can be a brooch?
1231they are really lovely and I think your ladies will be really pleased and happy to wear any one of these. I have made something quite similar to these and I sprayed mine with a little perfume just to add a little whiff of scent.
