A Felt SALE : :

This time every year I get the itch for handwork, projects that can easily be taken on the go for those longer road trips or just to have to work on while outdoors enjoying the beautiful weather. In the past for me that's either meant a simple knitting project or some kind of embroidery hoop work that I never seem to finish. Well, this year I'm planning ahead and I'm putting together a portable basket of my wool blend felt and embroidery floss with supplies for making all the beautiful felt flowers!



I recently restocked my Etsy shop with my favorite wool blend felt colors, adding a few new options to the mix that I'm really excited about! So today I thought I'd share a sale with those of you who might be looking for something new, portable, and fun to do, as well!!





Now through the end of May use Coupon Code: SUMMERLOVE for 20% OFF any Wool Blend Felt order in my Maureen Cracknell Handmade shop! I went ahead and added a few easy felt flower tutorials to my "Just For Felt" Pinterest Board to help you get started!

Thanks in advance to those of who support my little shop, I really appreciate you! Happy hand-working!!

Crowns of Flowers : :

Making all of these hand-rolled and cut flowers is definitely my new favorite non-quilty thing to do! It was a pretty rough week last week, all three of my kiddos had the flu and I've been having a tough time with some health issues of my own. Making these was the perfect curl up under a quilt on the couch project to keep me still feeling productive! Aren't they so pretty?!







It's been a lot of fun, but my supplies have run out. I only have enough of the beautiful, recycled silk twine that I've been using as my tiebacks to make just two more. Any type of ribbon will work just as well, but I had professed from the beginning that once I ran out, I would be done with these for now!

If you would like to make some of your own, I'm a having a felt sale for 20% off with coupon code: FELT20OFF in my etsy shop! Many of you have asked for me to share a tutorial for the flowers I've been making, I wish I could but I just don't have the time right now. If you follow this link to Pinterest you can find so many already available!



Have a great day!  ♥  Maureen
