What was your inspiration?

This is a gift for my 7-year old daughter. She really enjoyed watching the flower portion of this video and I thought it would add a nice touch to a gift for her. Also, the package isn't really the right shape (maybe that is why the lines didn't line up?) but I REALLY wanted to try the criss-cross wrap. I kind of think the flower looks silly, but I am SURE she will get a huge kick out of it.

What are you most proud of?

The flower.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The Criss-Cross wrap is a little more difficult to accomplish than I expected. Go slow and don't get flustered.
