One of the projects I've been working on is choosing vintage buttons for lots of new eco flowers...
These flowers have been my lazy late-night project for weeks, sitting in front of a film and cutting out petals or sewing them together, and as you can see I've gradually built up quite a collection! It's lovely finally choosing buttons for them.Like my other eco flowers, these are all made from the Kunin ecospun felt I bought earlier this year, which is made from recycled plastic bottles.
The next task will be to turn the large flowers into brooches and the smaller ones into pretty hair combs.
UPDATE: This felt flower design is now available as a sewing pattern! Visit my shop to see all my printable PDF patterns:

Keeping you in my prayers!

I always find it really satisfying seeing all your felt goodies laid out in neat rows. It makes my working habits seem atrocious. Whenever I start I always think of you and have good intentions though. The trays are a really good idea for keeping everything together.
Love the idea of felt made from plastic bottles too.
As with everything you do, these are lovely! The colors are fantastic.
