Bookcover
I punch some felt from the back on the flannel, then embroidered it with one of my own appliqué designs.

This is a great use of that embellishing machine! I really must get mine out and dust it!

You should, it's nice to experiment a bit with it. I've got a bag full of roving I bought in Norway, gorgeous colours, but I wanted to get a bit better before starting with those.

Wow that is that is so cool! You seem to make exactly what I need, and do things that I want to do, I like experimenting and felting is one thing I have not done enough of! Love it here! Also, Is that poinsettia? I have a project that needs a base. May I have your design to see if it will work for this 3D project? The base I thought would work is too small. Thank you

It's not a poinsettia, it was just a phantasy flower I digitised over a year ago for an evening outfit for my daughter - see http://youembroidery.com/13226_wrap-clutch-purse-remnants-diaphanous.html
Seeing the amount of leaves you already have you'd be better off placing them on your project where you want them, them stitching them done by embroidering a flower heart only - you could even choose a small applique circle.

done = on, sorry
All the leaves have eyelets, so I thought I would put them on a thread stand type setup and glue a middle on top. The eyelets are quite large. I think this design is DBC, I think I should find it. I like your idea of only using a few per element, inspirational, thanks!
I think it is gonna work for this project whichever way I go, great design! Thanks
Nope too small. I will find the perfect base!
that isn't a base - in this design - it looks more like a center - to cover all the work that you do with the leaves and petals - behind it - in my opinion.

I've never tried felting yet, but judging from your work, it certainly can produce lovely results. This is both subtle and beautiful. Very pleasing for the eye.
