Anyway. About the hibiscus. And the bag. And the felted flower that was inspired by the hibiscus!
You see, I was always firmly opposed to felting. I thought it was silly. But then I felted this purse.
I think I'm a felting fiend now.
I especially like making the flowers:
I felt a big piece of knitted wool,
then I cut the petal by hand (and no template)--then felt by hand the edges of the flower, which lets me shape the petal into the fantabulous little creation above.
Well. I think it's fantabulous. Who knew I'd ever felt a single thing--ever?!

pretty!
felting is fun and addictive. it looks so cool, but it's not that hard! what could be better?
So true! (the "what could be better" part)--and thanks!
LOVE the little flower! I've only felted one purse (which I can't find) but I'm thinking of making a new one. Although I don't carry purses. But your bag is making me want to!
Hey thanks! Glad to be an inspiration! :)
