Sunflowers and Pink!

Thank you for the comments on my snowdrops. Crocheting is more than a hobby for me, its a passion!

And, some day, I hope to be able to earn a reasonable amount of money from it.

Although I don't think it will ever earn me a living and certainly not the Aston Martin DB9 I have promised Mark when I become rich and famous!

Here are some more pages from my Silk Album. This is the Sunflowers. I used pieces of the backing and framing fabric on it.

I added the crocheted sun in the corner and Lesley said it needed a stem. So it got turned into a sunflower with a button centre, a wooden stem and some crocheted leaves. The beaded flower was made from beads used on the actual wall hanging and the ladybirds added a bit of colour.

Pink was a bit more difficult to scrap as I really don't like the colour. It seems strange that this one should have turned out to be my signature piece for the exhibition. It doesn't have a whole load of my own handmade embellishments on it. Just the butterfly and flower made from the beads.

But those stitched handmade papers where so pretty that I just had to use them! And I bought those quilted flowers months ago!!!!
