Mother's Day Felt Flowers tutorial

Mother's Day is approaching so I have made these cute felt flower's that I think any mother would love to receive..and the best thing about them is they will last forever :)  Real flowers are always pretty but they don't last unfortunately. With the felt ones you can make all different designs and colours and the fact that you made them will be that bit extra. (plus is oober quick to do).

You will need:

*Any coloured felt (make sure you get some green felt for the leaves)

*Pencils (I bought mine in Wilko's for 8p each)

*Scissors

*Wool

*Fabric glue

Take a strip of fabric and cut a wiggly lines on one side. With some green felt cut out one or two leaf shapes..

With some fabric glue start wrapping the fabric around the top of the pencil..wiggly side up!

Once you have wrapped all the fabric and glued it into place take some wool and tie a tight knot around the flower to bunch it in just below half way..

Take the two leaves and wrap them in tightly with the flower..

Keep wrapping the wool round and round until you cant see any of the bottom of the flower. If you want you can continue wrapping it all the way down the pencil like i did and tie a knot at the bottom..

And WALA....you have a felt flower...

Hope you enjoyed....
