Daisy's collar

 For the collar for Daisy I used two layers of fabric, a cotton sateen as backing and poly satin for the outer fabric.


This is the base layer, it's not a complete circle. I sewed the two layers together along the outer edge to stabilize them. Then I freehanded the petalshape of the collar and sewed the layers together at those lines.


I cut out the new shape of the collar, turned it right side out and pressed it.


I unfortunately foegot that I was working with poly satin and put the iron on my regular wool setting.  Oops. I didn't want to redo the collar, so I think I will be able tobhide that little mishap.

I also topstitched all along the edges of the collar.


I sewed the collar on to the dress byvhabd aling the topstitching.
