floral pin by

Have been seeing so many of these floral lapel pins lately at very high
prices. Wondering if someone here has ideas for making them -- can't be
sure about the fabrics they are using -- perhaps starched cotton but how do

Hey all,
I was hoping that someone could be of assistance. I am looking at
purchasing a sewing machine in the next month (that is if I can make up
my mind). I have narrowed it down, unless I get better suggestions to
the Janome 6125, the Janome DE3050 or a used Pfaff (1472 Anniversary
addition)....
