3D Crochet Flower with Stamens

Motif Description

My most successful pattern ever remains to be my 3D Scalloped Flower. In my efforts to top that record, I created this 3d flower motif. This pattern has two variations for the stamens. (This photo shows the Swirled Stamen.) Even though the pattern calls for plarn (plastic bag yarn), you can still use any other yarn you desire.
