February fun!

There are lots of celebrations in February hence a quieter blog but hectic hooking!




I couldn't resist taking a picture of the petals in progress - they seemed to complement the book I was resting on so perfectly!


 They weighed in at a stash busting 8g!!


I enjoyed making up some of the patterns as I went along or adapting old favourites, also whilst tidying up some boxes a few more flowers were found and added to the  bunch!

Here's the finished posy


I also 'brooched' some wildlife!




The cat,  who looks more tiger-like, is an adaptation of my owl pattern -
two of the creatures have needlefelted eyes  - and one has more experimental beady eyes!
Altogether they busted 13g - paw weight but owlfully great fun!

Happy February Birthdays to friends and family!

Pretty flowers! I keep writing down my stash busting atempts too and because I love making flowers and little things I rarely get over 10 grams either :) Elisabeth x

Your card is very creative and I love the owl but at only 21g used I can't imagine how many you'd have to make to empty your stash.

So cute! I do like these little creatures... and they're worth so much more than their weight when they make us smile :o)
