![Things[Hand Made]](http://bp0.blogger.com/_95wDbc7rGVM/Ruwhz7dTi7I/AAAAAAAAAAs/I4Hop-XGs8g/s1600/blog_banner.jpg)
In between activities I have been relaxing making these flowers. I bought a bag of scraps of hand dyed wool, woven and then partly felted wool at the Festival of Quilts as I just loved the colours and decided to make a bouquet to cheer through the winter months. I am not sure what you would call it.
(Am I the only person to buy things based on a beautiful colour? I think I am among friends here!)
They were quite easy so I have written a quick tutorial showing how to design your own. I will make the next lot out of straight forward felt. I have added buttons and stiches to add more interest.
The tutorial is about how to design them and then use the drawing as a pattern to make one but I am not sure I actually said that on the sheet. You need to follow the link so find it. Its a PDF that you can save or print.
Some people had a problem with the last one so I hope this one works OK otherwise my technical director (j) will be in trouble!

Speaking of tutorials, Jackie posted a tutorial for me on how to encase leaves into work. It looks so interesting and I can feel an autumnal wall hanging in there somewhere but only when I have finished the LIST!
