Second time felt

Felt two blog posts running, huh? And this is second time for another reason, too.

Thanks to the Daring Cardmaker's current dare (see last post) I found Betz White's lovely blog. Betz does fabulous things with old sweaters and she's provided a great tutorial for making a felt flower. So it's second time around for a couple of sweaters I happend to have felted up for another project I haven't got round to doing yet - I used a little of them to have a go myself:


It's not as lush as Betz's but it's not bad for a first try, I don't think! I think I might stitch a central vein down the leaves if I get chance later on though.

Check out the rest of Betz's site if you get the chance - just how cute are those felt cupcakes?!
