Fabric Flowers from Old T-Shirts

These flowers are made from recycled t-shirts. They are fabric chrysanthemums! I thought they were real when I first saw them. Who doesn't have a gazillion old t-shirts lying around?
The next time I think of throwing some out, I might want to try this. It's the kind of thing that is more tedious than hard, but looks like it would be worth the effort - and could be fun.
