All my designs are done with a paper and pencil, with lots of tea drinking and some occasional cussing when things don't work out quite how I'd planned ;)<br /><br />Leanne - Yup, it's fun but also a lot of work. I can't wait to share the finished designs with everyone! After years of blogging things as I'm making them it's very tough having to keep so many secrets!<br /><br />Gayle, Silly Little Sheep & Rebecca - I'm afraid I just throw my scraps away! I only keep very small pieces of black and white felt as they're good for cutting out tiny eyes. <br /><br />I did used to keep my scraps and use them for stuffing things like pincushions (tiny felt scraps make for a very densly-stuffed, nicely weighted pincushion) but nowadays I have so many leftover scraps I have way too many to use.

I'm terrible as well, I keep them in a bag as "I'm sure they will come in handy"... do you ever use up your scraps, and what for? <br /><br />Following your blog now- pop across to mine and say hello too please, I'm new to this! <br /><br />Gayle x<br />http://makethriftlovelife.blogspot.co.ukAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16200933063534528730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-59401677461332466912014-03-11T15:34:21.731+00:002014-03-11T15:34:21.731+00:00I agree, it's so interesting to read about the...I agree, it's so interesting to read about the process you go through and just how much work is involved.
