How to make a better buttercup. . .and other blossoms, forty in all, from formal silk tulips to casual crepe paper daisies. Using a variety of fabrics (cotton, velvet, satin, organdy), Wilkinson fashions flowers that are attractive and lifelike with stamens, leaves, etc. The instructions are explicit, accompanied by actual-size patterns and illustrated in step-bystep line drawings. Full-color photographs present the finished items in fanciful displays, and tips on arranging--crescents and curves, base materials--also help the novice.
