Wet Felt Rose

I made this last night after laying out some wool for another cowl/short scarf;

I followed this tutorial on YouTube and isn't toooooooo bad for a first attempt at a wet felted rose! It's not the most comprehensive tute but you get the basic idea. I even found some silk hankies left over from a silk paper making pack. I carefully tied each of the 3 layers of felt with cotton thread so the petals would dry in the desired shape, and I was quite relieved to see it worked.

I would really like to make some orchids and lilies to wear as corsages......soon, very soon!!
