Flower Frenzy
Happy President's Day.
It was, indeed, a marathon weekend in which I finished my dining room centerpiece.
I created every sort of different flower.I attempted to match the flowers on the curtains which were pretty bizarre to begin with. [For those following along, see February 13th post.] I tried to replicate these strange white puffy things by making white pompoms which I felted, cut in half and then added dots of color by needle felting.
My daughter said they looked like moldy matzoh balls.
I did a little better with the blue tulips which I made by knitting long rectangles and rolling them up into flowers.
They might not be perfect or smell like flowers - but I don't think they totally stink. They actually have a cool 1960's feel to them. Who wants the matzoh ball recipe??
Those are COOL! Are they all felted?

wow... those are pretty! Did you ever share the pattern for the felted calla lily? I'd love to have it!

Those turned out so beautifully! I love the palette you used - those colors are fabulous together. That fabric is right up my alley too. Love the whole ensemble ;)
