Would someone mind pointing me in the right direction for this video. I've done a search but nothing comes up.

Thanks so much

Thanks for the link -

Holly Molly - I've watched the beginning about 10-15 times and can't even get started. Wish there was some sound with verbal direction as to what to do. These roses are soooo pretty.

Well I'll just keep watching and trying.

Thanks

I love the little roses, they are adorable! For those who couldn't get the rose, I couldn't either at first. It took me forever to get the 1st fold down. Once I made the 1st fold I turned the ribbon in my hand so that I was holding it standing up the same way you started the first fold to make the 2nd, KWIM? Instead of keeping it on the side like she does hers.

Hopefully Lynn (HI!) will put out an e-book soon (hint-hint)!

Here are some I made this afternoon using a method I found on the internet modifying it a bit. I didn't use any kind of a tool. Just my fingers
I used 1/4, 3/8 and 5/8" grosgrain - It's really easy - I'm sure they will improve as I practice.

I'm still working on this one. I'm almost there.

The little bitty ones I made are still a LOT easier and can be done with larger ribbon.

Thanks
