A Great Spiral Daisy Tutorial

And last, but definitely not least, DT member, Dina Kowal, saw this great Spiral Daisy tutorial by Klaudia.  Below is Klaudia's finished product.  The post in in Polish.   You can use the Google translator in her left-hand sidebar for your language.   The tutorial is so well done I think you can also go through the pictures and know what to do without the translation.  Let me know what you think.  Those centers are awesome.  Her instructions remind me of Kittie Caracciolo's great tutorials.

If you have questions please email me.   Hope your week has been great and thanks for stopping by to look and share!
