Sweet needle felted flowers!

Springtime flowers!

around here, in central Virginia, 
flowers are blooming everywhere!

Inspired by their beauty, 
I've been creating some flowers of my own!
needle felted flowers

brooches & headbands!


flower headbands

These flowers are all painstakingly  (LOL) needle-felted using mostly Corridale wool roving.

Each flower takes over an hour to needle and then I add handsewn glass beads. 
THEN, I either add a pin back OR attach them to a headband. 

The headbands are wet felted using soft Merino fibers and 
allowed to dry before I attach the needled flowers.~
