To stitch these cute little flowers that bring infinite bling and sparkle to any of your every day clothes or your party clothes, you just need to gather your favourite Sequins, some small seed beads and some polyester sewing thread – choose thread in the same color as the sequins for it to be inconspicuous or contrasting color for some drama.
Choose a needle that will pass comfortably through the sequins holes.
Method 1 -Super easy sequin flower
First, draw a 2″ diameter circle as a guideline.
Take one strands of thread, thread the needle and make a large knot.
Bring the thread out from the back on the circle. Pick up one sequin from the back and then a seed bead with the needle.
Insert the needle back on the edge of the sequin. This will anchor your first sequin in place.
Bring the needle out a little away (half of the sequin size) from the first sequin on the radius of the circle itself. Pick one more sequin and bead. Anchor this.
Repeat the steps again and again till rest of the sequins fill the whole circle and you have a flower shape.
Watch the video to see how this flower is made:
Start the next row this inside the first row.
After attaching the sequins, insert the thread to the back and Wrap the thread around the back of the sequins twice to anchor the stitches.
To attach some seed bead in the center, bring the thread out on the front a little off the center point. Attach two or three small beads, insert the thread on the back and anchor it there with more stitches.
Method 2. Embroidery + sequins flower
After sewing the sequins along the circle, make lazy daisy stitches from the center of the circle passing through the circle. Use contrasting thread for a vivid look.
Method 3. Simplest sequins flower
Mark a tiny circle on your fabric. Bring the thread out from the back on the circle.
Pick up one sequin with the needle (Pick the sequin from its back).
Insert the needle back on the circle on the radius of the sequin. This will anchor your first sequin in place.
Bring the needle out a little away from the first sequin on the radius of the circle itself. Thread it through the hole in the sequin. Insert the needle back on the circle on the radius of the sequin.
Repeat with the rest of the sequins filling the whole circle and you have a flower shape.
After attaching the sequins, all around the circle,
insert the thread to the back and Wrap the thread around the back of the sequins twice to anchor the stitches.
To attach the beaded center, bring the thread out on the front a little off the center point. Attach one, two or three small beads, insert the thread on the back and anchor it there with more stitches.

Method 4. Layered sequins flower.
For this you will be marking a bigger circle. And then another smaller one inside the first circle.
Bring up the needle from the back on the circle.
Start threading the needle with sequins and beads. I threaded the needle in the following order: 1 sequin, 1 bead, 1 sequin, 2 beads. When threading the sequins onto the needle, pick them up from the back
Bring the needle down at the markings of the smaller circle.
Add more beads and sequins inside the center circle.
