Red and Aqua – Take 4

October 12, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 27 Comments

I promise this is the last red and aqua you will see from us this week. When I spotted the tutorial for Stitched Felt Flowers over at Red Brolly, I couldn’t resist playing with some red and aqua felt.

This is the perfect project to do in front of the TV. I added a brooch backing to mine – it is the perfect way to add some colour to a gift package and it can then be repinned to a bag or hat etc.

To find out how to make you own stitched felt flowers, head on over to Red Brolly for the tutorial.  Wouldn’t a bouquet of felt flowers look gorgeous!

    the red and aqua flower is just beautiful! I love how charming it looks with that ribbon, adorning the gift box. I love the layers of the flower, especially the little white dots on the red flower. Sweet!
