Freebie Friday - Flowers and Fungi
Ah, alliteration is so satisfying. Not only are these tutorials great for embellishing dolls or creating little settings for tiny fairies, but you could use them as brooches (the flowers anyway, fungi brooches would just be weird).
Here is a great little tutorial for needle-felting a flower.
I adore these dahlias made out of ric-rac. Usually, I see ric-rac and shudder to think of the dance skirts my mum used to make me with rac-rac edging. I don't know why I shudder, I just do. I have ric-rac issues.
Here is a super cute dandelion tutorial. Hey, don't knock dandelion's, one woman's weed is another woman's flower. Don't you love it when kids pick you a 'flower' and it's a dandelion.
Whip out your hook and whip up this chrysanthemum crochet pattern.
Here is a great tutorial on how to make prim sunflowers. Grungier than Kurt Cobain and twice as cute.
And on to fungi...doesn't this little mushroom beg to have some teeny fairy seated on it?
And this mushroom doubles up as a free pincushion pattern - sweet.
I feel that this Freebie Friday was florally fabulous. And free. This Freebie Friday was sponsored by the letter F.
