Finish off and leave enough yarn to attach the leaves to each other.
To attach the leaves to each other, you must first fold the leaves, then place them next to each other and with the remaining you can sew them together. When you’ve sewn them together you can sew the 2 leaves on the side to the top of the body.
After that you sew the flower with just a few stitches to each leave and body.
