Poppy!

My latest creation after being in a slump. I made two of these so far, with more in the works. Watch for them to be featured in my shop soon. The first two are brooches, about 3.5 to 4 inches wide.

The wool petals are shaped first then I add the center to make it solid and to attach the petals together, then a little sparkle eye lash completes the look.

They fasten with a safety pin that was sewn and then needle felted over for extra security.
