Bullion Crochet Flower Tutorial
I love this stitch, it's so pretty and the flower is different than most crochet flowers. They are very pretty alone or stacked on top of one another.
You can click pics to enlarge.
Use a size 7 steel crochet hook, and size 1o cotton crochet thread.
To start, chain 6.
Join with a slip stitch to beginning chain to make a loop.
Chain 3.
Chain 3.
Yarn over 7 times (wrap the base of hook).
Insert hook in loop, yarn over, draw through all loops on hook, repeat this stitch 11 more times.
I find that it is easier to draw through all the loops by leaving pressure on the wrap with my index finger.
Join with slip stitch to beginning stitch. 
Chain 3.
Chain 3.
Bullion stitch in same stitch as chain, *two bullions in next stitch,
1 bullion in next stitch. Repeat from *.
Join with slip stitch, and finish off.

How gorgeous! I can see about three of these dotted randomly on a little dress. Thanks heaps! I'm going to give it a try.
Very pretty!
Thanks so much. I love this. I don't know if I'll be able to do it, but I love it.
Just lovely! Thread crochet is my favorite to work with and my fingers are just itching to try this out!
This is so much fun once you get a hold of doing it, if you keep trying you eventually get it for sure. I love doing this cute flower for sure! Thank you for posting this for us all to use
This is wonderful. However, when you are doing the second row of bullions you don't say how many times we should repeat the instructions. I'm going to love doing these, I think.

thanks, that's such a helpful tutorial :)
I love this. But please email me some help. How do you get the different sizes? I like the layered idea but always come up with the same size flower. pbaca6@cox.net
copyright information help pls.
beautiful flower you have designed.
if i were to use them in a necklace to sell, and give your name/website credit in the ad, would you allow that?
thanks, patti
