Fabric flowers

I have been having great fun playing with fabric flowers.  It has been a learning curve to make some that I have been happy with.  Following are some that I have made - some good, some not so good.  Really, really good fun to make.  They are like the rubber ducks, I can't help but smile when I am around them.

have a look at for sale page

I have things that I make that could be for sale if anyone is interested in them.  Keep an eye out for what is posted there.  

As yet I have not put prices but will attend to that over the weekend and also take photos of some more pretty bead creations that are still sitting on the beading station waiting to be displayed.

And then there are the fabric flowers.................

creating

Creating, making something with my hands, designing as I play with the material or the beads, is a wonderful gift to myself and sometimes for the people around me who are the recipients (paid or presented) of the items created.  Mmmmm.  And now, it is wonderful to have a workroom where I can be working on something and leave it there to go attend to whatever else needs to be done in my life.  Sometimes it is to go create something else at one of the other workstations.  I have three workstations - beading table, creating table (with fabric roses there at the moment) and the sewing machine, plus the computer station - but that is not really creating, that's more work - so I will leave it at the three creating stations.  My workroom is a luxury that I am enjoying while it is there and the layout is something that has developed over many years of not having a workroom.  It is also a room that I can shut the door and enjoy the rest of my space without looking at what I could or should be doing.
