Of course I'm going to try "out of the box", It turned out sew CUTE! Made my hands cramp making it, but it just might be worth it. I resized it smaller so I could use it with my Hair Bows... I might just add a few brown seed beads to give it some bling.

thank you. They have. My thumbs are the worse. But I soak them in warm water to get them moving. :)

Now that is really thinking outside the box. Love it. Is it done on felt?

1 comment
keeponsewing by keeponsewing 12 Jan 2011

Yes, it is done with felt. After posting this, I thought about putting seed beads in the center to give it more dimension.

Great job - sorry your hands cramped making it. What did you stitch it on - so you could make it for your hair bows?

keeponsewing by keeponsewing 11 Jan 2011

Shirlene, I started with a brown felt, then added the yellow felt, then cut out the center part of the yellow and then cut the excess yellow around the petals. On the last stitches, I added a brown felt in the back, then had to cut around each of the petals again.. Whew! Did I write that so you can understand? hehehe...
