Flower Tutorials and Links

What do you think? (See below for full story)

Hi everyone,
Hope you are all well.  Just doing a quick post today as I'm working on writing handbag patterns to sell on etsy - if any of you have tried it and have advice, it's totally welcome here! Same goes with suggestions of handbags you'd like to make but don't have the time to draft the pattern. Just comment or email me.
Meanwhile, I've also been looking to embellish some clothes and bags, so I've been trolling through fabric flower tutorials.  Here are a few I really like:
Huge fabric rose tutorial at Trey and Lucy
freckled laundry's sweet video for fabric rosette
Make It Do's ribbon peony brooch - lovely!
Simply Vintage Girl's flowers - uses fire, but not difficult and very beautiful!
Instructables Felt Flower Brooch
Bugs and Fishes Design and Make a Felt Flower Brooch
Betz White's Felted Flower Brooch - Easy!

Lastly, I've been doing some product development for the etsy store and came up with this little wallet - what do you all think? Is it cute? Is it crap? I think I'm too close to it to evaluate it properly:

That's all I got right now :) See you again soon!
