Stems and Leaves Crochet

I was looking for the perfect stem and leaves to add to flowers and found a great pattern.....FREE!  And one of the quickest things EVER.





The actual pattern involved one leaf and then the stem.  I then crocheted a second leaf and attached it separately.  I varied the stitch count on the leaves to make them larger or smaller.  

After crocheting, you take the floral wire or pipe cleaner or regular wire and thread through the stitches.  

Why did I need these stems?  Why have I been crocheting so many flowers?  Check back soon to see!

I may be linking to THESE parties!
