Layered dahlia pattern / LETTER

Keep the sizes in separate piles and compare a dry arrangement before attaching the layers. No exact botanical specimen is claimed.

Print at actual size and measure the 50 mm reference line before using physical measurements.
Cut the petal shapes and centers from the supplied sheets. Keep the different sizes in separate piles.
Shape one petal gently around a pencil, then compare flat and curved arrangements before committing to glue.
Dry-stack the largest pieces underneath the smaller ones, rotating layers so the petal gaps are staggered. Place the center last.
Attach each layer only at the center, allowing adhesive to set before adding the next. Adjust the arrangement on a trial piece; the file does not establish a specific botanical specimen or a tested finished diameter.

Printing and use notes

Make one trial on ordinary paper before using special stock or preparing a batch. No physical test result is claimed.
