White Elder flowers.



 Sambucus nigra  is widely found in Europe, western Asia, and North Africa growing naturaly and is often cultivated. It is naturalised in North America where the native species is  S. canadensis .

European elder is a shrub or small tree growing to a height of about 10m (33ft) ;  American elder grows to a height of about 4m (13ft). The branches of the plant have a brownish grey corky bark, and there is a large proportion of soft, light, whitish pith. Its leaves have 5 � 7 toothed leaflets. The creamy white elderflower gives rise to purplish black fruit. Herbal products are normally obtained from the flowers.
 The natural health benefits of elderberries and elderflower is by no means a modern discovery, with a long history of traditional use among European herbalists documented since ancient times in the writings of  Dioscorides, Hippocrates and Pliny the Elder. In recent years dietary supplements and other natural health products containing extracts, juices or syrups of European elder have become popular in America  as remedies for the treatment of cold and flu symptoms, marketed primarily through natural food stores alongside other popular herbal remedies used for treatment or prevention of upper respiratory tract infections and other symptoms associated with colds and flues.

clothes flowers designs.

 basket of cloth flowers.

Even if you think you can't sew, these fabric flowers are super-duper easy!  You just have to try one! 
If you don't have any fabric lying around you could use an old sheet, clothes that the kids have outgrown, little baby things that you love (imagine giving grandma a flower brooch made from pieces of fabric from all her grandkids favorite clothes!), dishcloths that have outlived their usefulness and anything else made from fabric.
Here's what you need to get started:
Step_onegather_supplies
Fabric
Buttons
Needle & Thread
Circle Template (I used a juice glass)
Fabric Marking Pencil (a regular pencil would probably do the job)
Scissors
Step One
First choose the fabric you'll use for the petals.  I love how different patterns & colors looked mix-matched, but you could use all the same fabric.
Step_twotrace_circles
Next trace the circle template onto your fabric. 
The larger the circle you use, the large your petals and flower will be.
Step Two
Step_threecut_circles
Cut out your circles.
Step Three
Step_four_iron_circles
Once you've cut your circles, iron, iron, iron! (remember how I feel about ironing?)
Believe me this really effects the look of your project. 
And the fabric is so much easier to work with when crisply ironed. :)
HINT:
Don't "drag" your iron across the fabric, but actually just press and lift, press and lift.  Dragging will cause your fabric to stretch and be misshapen.
Step_four_ironed_circles
See?   So much prettier!
Step Four
Now you'll fold your circle in half and then in half again, *pressing* after each fold.
Step_fivefold_circles_in_half
Step_fivefold_circles_in_quarters
Step Ten

Step_fivefolded_circles_in_quarters
Once you have all your petals folded and pressed, it's time to stitch!
Step_sixsew_circles
Start at the bottom corner of the curved side and make long gather stitches across the curve to the other side.
Step_sixsew_circles2
(Normally you would use matching thread, but in this case I used a contrasting thread so you could see a little better.)
Step Five
Step_sevengather_circles
Now gently pull the the thread to gather your petal.
Step_sevengathered_circles
Step Six
Step_eightattach_circles
Once your petal is gathered begin the gathering stitches on the next petal without cutting the thread so the petals are connected.
Step_eightattach_circles2
Continue stitching, gathering and connecting until all your petals are complete.
Step_eightattach_circles3
Step_eightattach_circles4
Step Seven
Step_nine_attach_petals
Now that you're finished gathering all your petals you'll need to close the gap by stitching the last petal to the first.
Step_nine_attach_petals2

Step Eight
Next choose a button for the center of your flower.
