And nearly finished but fading light stopped play....

Last but not least. And just might become 'my precious'. By the way, Kerryn gets to have the blue one.

And going back in time....

This is the first brooch I made using Kerryns felt flowers.

A brooch that isn't a brooch....

It's gonna be a hair tie, or decoration for the hair, but it can still be a brooch! And it's for Sam.

this was made today....

Crocheted flower in black wire with added Czech AB Green seeds beads, and a centre of three glass turquoise pearls.

this one was made yesterday....

I've added crochet copper wire leaves, a peridot green feather, Czech glass leaves with peridot green beads and Czech fire polish beads for some added sparkle.

Making brooches ......

I was given about 6 felt flowers last year by another beady cyber friend (Kerryn). Now I know what to do with them
there's no stopping me! Brooches galore are being whipped up every day in all different styles and colours.

What's this trickery!!!!!

Working with seed beads can turn a sane person absolutely bonkers! I rest my case.....
