Where my family in law lives in Surrey, there’s 2 gorgeous shops where I know I’ve got to stop each time I visit: the Quilt Room for patchwork and quilting supplies and oh so lovely fabrics wherever you look….

and the felt making shop called:

Where you can get the loveliest wool, yarn,felt kits, buttons,bag and thread supplies. One of these shops you wish you could spend hours in.

These fabric flowers are so cute, I just learned how to make them and as it was a first, I kinda chose one of my least favorite fabrics…But it works well together! I plan to make many more, this time mixing and matching gorgeous fabrics…And if it works well, maybe I could offer them in my Etsy boutique?…Something to think about!

So, yes I forgot to say that I made this flower into a brooch!

Made a little ‘carton handbag’ to present the brooch into…

I love using contrasting colours and I’ve notice that Black and white together mixed with specific colours is stunning. You’ll probably find this mix in  my creations…I mean, just look at the blog! LOL

Ready to go! I’m going to offer that one to my friend as we’re staying with them this week end in Clifden, Connemara. Hope she likes it, but I’m quite confident, she’s very arty crafty herself and loves buttons.

 Thanks for looking ^_^
