File details:
Flower Tutorial, 9 pages, 43 photos, 3.3MB.
Supplement, 6 pages, 42 photos, 2.3MB.

Materials:

DMC Cebelia crochet thread or other tightly wound cotton thread, appropriately sized hook & tapestry needle.

The simple flower can be made with any size thread, the fancy flower is best with size 20 or finer unless it's to be an applique. Size 30 thread & a 1.5mm or 1.25mm hook is ideal if the fancy flower is to be used as a brooch (approx 1.75" - 2"+ across).

Suggested Materials:
Buttons, beads, stickpin or pinback hardware, U shaped hair pins, fabric dye & small plastic cups.

Gauge:
Not essential. The finer the thread you use, the looser you can make the stitches on the fancy flower.

You need the following skills:
magic ring
chain
slip stitch
single crochet
half double crochet
double crochet
triple crochet (medium flower)
double triple crochet (large & pinwheel flower)
patience (fancy versions)

The small simple flower is easy, appropriate for novice crocheters with the first six skills listed above. The medium & large simple flowers just use taller stitches and are suitable for those with intermediate skills. The fancy versions may require more experience (and some patience) to create the unique lacy edge.
