Flowers

Hello my Friends.  Hope you have all had a nice week-end. I'm feeling back to normal now as my back seems fine.   While I was resting I made loads of flowers and at least its something I can do whilst sitting in the evening.  I love making my own flowers and some of them are my own idea.   I think these should last a while, but the addiction is still there.   Hope you like the colourful post.  I'm still doing my May birthday/anniversary cards ,but cannot post at the moment.

I've also just ordered wool for hand knitted socks after seeing the ones that my blogging friend Kate made. So watch this space.      Hope you All have a lovely day.  Hugs Rita xxxx

Your flowers are gorgeous! I'm always making flowers as I never seem to have the right color on hand. It's a good thing I enjoy playing with flowers! Glad you are feeling better!

Hi Rita, so good to hear that you are feeling much better now, long may it continue. Your flowers are always beautiful but it is lovely to see so many all lined up like this. The ones top left are quite stunning but I would be hard pressed to choose favourites from them. Gorgeous! Hugs, Anne x

Hello Rita, so pleased your back is better, you'll just have to be careful how you move.
Gorgeous flowers, they are all so different. Are they made with dies? I've not had another go at making, mine were a disaster.

Great you got the sock yarn, look forward to seeing the end result. There is fabulous sock yarn out there now, all sorts of yarn and prices to match. A great place is an online shop called the Sock Shop, hugs Kate x

Well Rita what can I say about this lot.............I just LOVE them all.
Flower heaven for me.
I think I see some done with UTE. I am thinking about getting a melt pot to do some. I am saving hard at the moment for my holiday with Hazel in a few weeks then Birmingham in November. You never know I might just be tempted very soon.
Have a Great Day

These are gorgeous Rita! I used to make a lot of hand made flowers too but got out of the habit cause of the time factor. Now I rarely use flowers on my projects at all. :-( These will make beautiful projects. Hugs!

Beautiful, beautiful. I'm especially drawn to the lovely roses. I have to confess, my tries never look like this! Stunning, and how much enjoyment you will get later adding to projects. Then your recipient can enjoy them once again. As your blog friends have. So you have really shared some joy! TFS
