Love felt. L.O.V.E.
I am so excited about the rainbow of awesome felt colors just released in the 2011 Holiday Catalog & Inspiration Guide. (look for the cover photo, featuring the Santa Suit, to slide by and click on that red dot) Giddy. Swooning. Petting.
I had been DYING to make some felt flowers--brooches, to be exact! This one reminds me of a chrysanthemum with the fringe and all! *monkey clapping*
ETA: I *just* realized there's a felt challenge over at the Moxie Fab, too!!! Ooooh, plush!!! Gotta ogle the felties! Yip Yip!!!
School starts right after Labor Day and that's gonna be upon me faster than I can say Bob's Yer Uncle! I still gotta take that freshman kid o' mine school shopping!!! EEK!!! I am so ready for the week-end! How 'bout ya'all?! Summer came late to Whidbey--I gotta get out and get some o' dat sunshine cuz seriously? My legs are so blinding white, you peeps would need shades!!!
Anyhoo--I did a video tutorial on these fun felt flowers, which you can view here, or right on YouTube!
Enjoy!
I also wanted to say thanks for the anniversary wishes! We'd planned to go out for a nice dinner here at one of all-time favorite local restaurants (their mussels are out of this world!), but my MIL ended up needing to go to the hospital so we'll hafta reschedule. She's fine now--having trouble with acid reflux attacks; this was the third trip to the ER in less than 2 months. We're hoping a specialist will be able to get to the bottom of it--the attacks are so exhausting. :(
