Fabric Flowers

I cant stop myself making these cute little flowers. The more I make the better they seem to look (must be all the practice.

Once I've stopped myself for a few hours I plan to make a denim bag (from old jeans) and use these flowers to decorate it. I'll get it made and posted on here for all you lovely people to see.

 

        

Right, where's the thread?

Flower Power!

I am so happy this week as I have stumbled upon some amazing websites. I've started making flowers to adorn my bags and things! Thanks to http://www.coolmummy.co.uk/ and http://alittleofthis---alittleofthat.blogspot.com/  for your great tutorials.

 

I know the summer is almost over and winter is fast approaching. But that

dosn't mean we can't still enjoy the feel-good-factor of a lovely sunny flower on our bags or clothes.

Hope you enjoy them, and remember please leave any comments or feedback you feel would be useful. Im all ears.

Happy Wednesday!
