I'm working on a little flower ... well maybe not so little it's approximately 13 centimetres across.
It's not quite finished... I can see that the button (38mm self cover button) is the right size but it isn't the right fabric. I could use a manufactured button of a similar size instead I suppose, but I think I'll stick with the cover button.
It's a brilliant make for using up all those scraps of fabric... can be used to adorn a bag, embellish a hat or as an addition to the thick, warm snuggly 'summer' cardie you are probably wearing just now. You could use them in to fill in empty spaces on tables at your next craft fair and they don't take very long to make.
I've used some Kaffe Fassett off-cuts for this one... and in this next one I'm using Fresh Blooms in vanilla and a Freespirit Beads fabric.
I'm writing up a little 'how to', for my shop newsletter as I'm slightly terrified that I'll issue my first newsletter and promptly everyone will unsubscirbe so this is by way of little bribe to say 'please stay'.
What do you think to it/them?
