How to make the sunflower

01

Sort your beads

Count out the beads per color from the table. The most used color here is 80-15262 Cocoa with 103 beads.

02

Fill the pegboard

Work row by row from the top. The whole pattern fits on one large square pegboard (29 × 29).

03

Iron it

Cover the beads with ironing paper and iron on medium heat in slow circles until they fuse. Let it cool under a heavy book so it stays flat.

Iron it as a coaster, add a pin back for a brooch, or stitch it for a summer hoop.
