African Flowers

I've known about these African flowers for awhile now but I just tried making them in these past few days. They are so easy to make and very addictive! I love how I can mix the colors up and I'm trying to make them with an apple green border so that I can make a cushion cover when I have enough. So far I've made 8 pieces with green border, 4 with purple and 1 dark pink. I was inspired to make them when I saw this pillow on Karin on the Hook. Read her post about them here. She does great work!

I found more inspirations from By Elizabeth Cat here. I love how she used all the lovely colors in her work and I go ga-ga over her photos of gorgeous flowers. 

If you'd like to make them, I found a great tutorial by Heidi Bears here. For more or rather tons of inspiration, check these out. There's also a group dedicated to them here. I hope you will be inspired to crochet these lovely flowers after looking through all the photos of them. And I'd love to see your projects! Enjoy!
