A few new projects this year

I can now crochet in the round ....yippee !

I have also learned the best way to applique thanks to Wendi Gratz on her Shiny Happy World website

An experiment that didn't work !  I tried bleaching denim but it wasn't successful. I sprayed the bleach on. It was patchy and uneven so my butterfly went in the bin

I crocheted an owl brooch ....

.... and a rat toy for our cats.  Just a few projects to show what I have been doing this year. Marion x

The instructions for making felt flower brooches and key rings was in the " Patchwork and Quilting " magazine ages ago

I wish I knew the date but I can't see it on the pages I tore out and kept
