Tomorrow, I promise. I have my camera all ready but I've been so engrossed in making them that I forgot the piccies.  :sofa:

Aaaaaarghhhhhh! I've tried and tried and tried and it won't let me upload the photos. I've tried from my computer and from photobucket.  :rant:  Where am I going wrong?

Probably too many pixels, they have to be max 512kb per pic, overall max 1024Kb per post.

They are so lovely, they would make pretty button covers on a jumper...or added to all sorts of stuff like cushions, curtains, hair decorations.....I really like  them, beautiful.

Oh they're lovely!  :love:

I went to a wedding last year, couldn't see me in a 'hat' or one of they detractor thingies  ::), decided I'd find something at Woolfest.  Bought a flower brooch not dissimilar to the ones you've made and clipped it into my hair - much more me!

My bag and necklace were world trade artisan goods from the world / fair trade store too - I thought they looked a million dollars  :D - and no-one else had anything like them, lol

Oooooo .... they are fab! Love them all.  :trophy:


Are you going to give as gifts, or sell or make something special with them?


Have you tried 3D things? My daughter really wanted to make a tiny blue bird.


Our course is in a couple of weeks but not sure if it is needle or wet felting .... don't mind really.

Just  had an idea, my girls used to  be crafty in an arty way, they made little fymo? things (sorry about the spelling) we then found some birthday cards that matched or Christmas cards and pinned them on and sold them at a craft fair, they sold like hot cakes...you could even buy a pack of the card making cards and pin them on  for any event where you would see flowers...there.....I would certainly buy a card like that if I found one, then you can also wear the flower after....
