Assembly
Layering Leaves: Take 3-4 leaves and arrange them in a small cluster, overlapping slightly, to form the first layer of your flower. Using the tapestry needle and the tails from the leaves, sew them securely together at their bases.
Second Layer: Take the remaining 3-4 leaves and arrange them in a second cluster, slightly offset from the first layer to create a fuller flower. Sew this second layer onto the first.
Attaching Center: Place the small pink/peach flower center in the middle of your assembled leaves. Sew it securely in place using its tail.
Attaching to Band: Position the assembled flower centrally on the crochet bracelet band. Using the remaining tails and tapestry needle, carefully and securely sew the entire flower motif onto the band. Ensure all ends are woven in neatly.
