My Flower "Garden"

I got on a kick of needle felting flowers.  Most of them are fantasy "lollypop posies".  I added pin backs to them and plan to use them as scarf pins for some smallish neck scarves I hope to make (soon).  They are quite fun and easy to make-and I have enough wool to make a ga-zillion more.

    Those are really pretty.
    For some reason, my felted flowers don't seem to get the look I want. I really need to sit down with someone who makes lovely flowers so I can figure out the trick I'm missing.

    I love yours!

      Thanks-wish I could get together and show you what I do-one of the tricks is needle felting the shape then wet felt them-that seems to work for me

    So cute - I love these flowers! I have knit a few flowers but have never felted them - you have inspired me to try it.

    Perhaps a nice flower garland with which to decorate something? Lots of possibilities!
