You will want to cut a length of yarn to attach the circles together.

1. The first frame shows the circle, in preparation to being added to the other petals.
   
2. You fold the circle about 1/3 of the way up to form a straight edge along the bottom of all 5 circles.
3. Fold the bottom points of the large circle together and run the needle through, pulling snug and securing. You will want to shape and adjust your petal at this point.
4. Knot and secure your petals. Hide the tail.
