Some flowers and an applique

So if you didn't read my deal of the century post check it out here. I took the pink hoodie for my daughter and jazzed it up a bit. First I took some damask print fabric in pink and drew an A:

 I then cut out the A

 I then pinned it to the sweater and sewed it down (next time I will use some fabric glue for this. I think it would make the edges not fray as much. I am no professional though!).

Then I cut out some circles from large to small in the same fabric:

 I then stacked them to make two different flowers and sewed both flowers (separately):
 I then added a spare button to the center of each one:
 Finally, I sewed the flowers on the hoodie:
Cute little hoodie from my beautiful daughter (and it only cost me a dollar!) . I am sure she will love it when she gets home from school!
