Poppy Pics

Well I eventually finished my handmade poppy ready for the Remembrance Service on Sunday. Basically it is exactly the same as one of the small plastic poppies sold by the Royal British Legion but it is larger and made from coloured craft felt.

Let me know what you think.

POPPIES

I will be running Cubs tonight, I am the Akela, and I will be talking to the boys about Remembrance Day and all that it signifies but this means I won't have much time to do any crafty stuff. However, following on from an idea I spotted on Twitter from a posting by MollieMakes , my intention tomorrow is to spice up my Royal British Legion Poppy, although as yet I am not sure in what way. Maybe I could add a bit of felt or sparkle, anyone got any ideas?
I will post a photo of the finished article here when its completed, for all to see. Even if it turns out disastrous.

Vintage fabric Rudolf decorations

Vintage fabric Rudolf decorations       This little reindeer made me smile, I think he's kinda cute.

My First Blog

Hi there fellow crafty persons and welcome to my first posting. My current creative workings involve making christmas tree decorations out of craft felt. I have various shapes which I have cut, these include:

Christmas Trees
Baubles
Christmas Puddings
Candy Canes
Stars
Holly Leaves

From these shapes, with the help of a little needle & thread, together with some other little bits of coloured craft felt I am attemting to create a festive delight which will give any little old christmas tree a bit of that homespun feeling.
