Felt Flower Brooch
This little pin is brightening up my black winter coat these days. I made two of these - one for a friend as a Christmas gift and one for myself. I used Betz White's tutorial, found here. The white petals are from a thrift store sweater I felted, the blue and green are scraps of wool felt I had. Betz uses a felt ball for the centre, I used a pearl button.
There are so many generous designers in blogland. They share so much of their creativity and I am thankful. They inspire me in so many ways.
