In my stubbornness I tried to start with 5 flowerpetels (25 stitches), but then the mathematics will drive you crazy!!! If you ever attempt the flower cushion challenge be smart and listen to advices in previously mentioned tutorial ;)
this is my flower with 5 petels (as you can see I didn't get wery far...)
after I had made the pretty side I crocheted the other side greenish and without petals (but with some "leafs" to make the pillow look more like a flower)
and then I made a inside pillow: sew together 2 cotton circles (leaving one small hole for stuffing) a bit bigger than flower, stuffed it with the remains of old pillow and sew the hole too.
and of course crocheted together both sides of my pillow with stuffing inside :)
my first ever crocheted pillow.. and it's so lovely! :))
