MATERIALS NEEDED:

Step 1

Take the ribbon and roll it tight for two – three times.

Secure the base by sewing it. This will make the work a lot easier.

 

Step 2

Now fold the ribbon against itself …

… and continue to gently roll around the center…

… like that.

Now secure again by sewing it.

 

Step 3

Repeat step 2: fold….

… and roll … then sew.

 

Step 4

Do that again and again until the ribbon is ending. It should look like that.

 

Step 5

This is the rose.
