Flower update!









I've now put my felting materials away for while, because should really be making some mini's. But thought i would share the progress so far.
I don't think i can call the flower a sunflower anymore... seems to have taken on a life of its own. Its still bright and cheerful and really pleased with it.
Decided last night i would felt the whole thing together. I was in two minds if i should or not but now glad i have. In a few weeks when i'm back on track with some mini making i'll start the rest of the work on this. It's also a little bit smaller because of wet felting for a second time and measures 78cm x 40cm.

    Yes, Wendie, i'll be wearing my working pj's i have set aside just for mini work, lol. I have bed ones and day ones, lol.
    Really need to work on smartening myself up and wearing real clothes... soon, i promise!
    Just cleaned my work room too... need to mini cause my food account is almost on zero... wish peeps didn't eat cause then i could play all day.

    Glad you all like it so far. I could say its finished but to me it just needs something esle to liven it all up. I think i'll do a pattern on the cream background in neutral colours... not sure.

    I love it the way it is. I like the plan background, the flower stands out. But thats just my opinion. You have done a magic job on it. xxx
