Poppies

I have been busy making felt poppies.  They are made using the large, medium and small Paperartsy flower dies.  There is a bit of sewing, not my favourite thing, the large and medium petals are gathered in the centre to give a bit of texture, the small is cut out in black and along with a black button makes the centre piece. The pin is sewed on the another medium red piece. The leaf is die cut from Tim Holts Tattered leaves die and it attached using a hot glue gun between the flower and the piece with the pin.  It makes a very neat finish.  I have sold quite a few and 50% of the sale price is being sent to the Royal British Legion
