Directions:

Make pattern from chart, allowing each square to equal one inch.

Center one petal over the other two. Gather all three across top until measurement is about 15 inches and add to waist band.

Trace a pansy on lower portion of each petal and embroider in natural colors.

*Note: The directions don’t mention finishing the raw edges of each petal but I would do so with a narrow hem before attaching to the waistband, you could also add an extra bit for seam allowance before cutting.

Here is the embroidery pattern for the pansies:
