Lower Right Flower: This flower was crocheted using two different colors of Peaches & Creme cotton yarn. The flower center is a pinback that says “love” and features a bird plus a heart motif.

There are pinbacks commemorating just about every imaginable theme, event, holiday, sports team, political party or slogan. If you’d like to use your crocheted flowers as a means for expressing a specific theme or idea, pinback flower centers are a fantastic option. Just pin them on your crocheted flower, and then use the embellished flower in the craft project of your choice.
