Cut or tear fabric into a strip that measures 1" wide by 44" long. (Not all fabric that I used in my samples would tear which made cutting necessary. Both methods work. Tearing just produces a more ragged edge). Remove the selvages and cut the strip in half so that you end up with two pieces that measure 1" x 22" (more or less - doesn't have to be exact). One whole piece will yield two roses.

Fold the fabric strips in half lengthwise and press. (My black roses were made from velveteen and I folded the center one with the velvet side out and the other two with the velvet side in - I wanted to vary the color and texture, but you could make them all with the velvet side out if you wanted to).

Secure one end of the folded strip to one end of a cardstock strip and loosely wrap until the entire strip is wrapped. Pin the other end. Try not to overlap the wraps as you go. And whatever you do, don't wrap too tightly or you won't be able to get the dang thing off the cardboard later (ask me how I know).

 
Lightly spray the wrapped strip with starch and press both sides of the strip with a hot steam iron. Let cool completely.

Now carefully slide the cardstock out from the wrapped strip being careful not to disturb the folds.

Working on your ironing board, lay the strip back out and starch and steam one more time. You may need to reposition your folds if they got messed up.

Starting at one end, place a pencil on the strip and start to loosely roll the strip onto the pencil. Do not pick the strip up. Just work with the strip laying on your ironing board as pictured.

Once it's rolled you can hold your little rolled rose in your hand and gently remove the pencil.

Hot glue the end to the side of the rose to secure.

Squeeze a puddle of hot glue onto a piece of matching felt. (The rose should be just slightly larger than the glue circle).

Place the rose in the glue and as it is drying pull the outside petals slightly out with tweezers or the point of your scissors. Continue opening up your rose petals as it dries being careful to make sure that all of the petals are secured in the glue. You can twist the inside of your rose with your tweezers to close up the hole if you're not adding a button to the center.

Let the rose cool completely.
