you don’t want to say that when you are a bit worse for wear! Actually have you noticed, recently I’ve been like buses as far as my posts on here go, none for ages, and then a flurry!!<\/p>\n

But I had promised this one : )<\/p>\n

Here are the 3 corsages that I was commissioned to make, they are all quite large, all about 4 to 4.5 inches or 10 to 12cm, across, they are all made using merino fibre as the base. So lets get underway,<\/p>\n

lots of mother of pearl and extra silk fibres on the felt for that one, has come out very nicely.<\/p>\n

more pearls and glass beading on this, with silk threads in the surface of the felt.<\/p>\n
