I love felt, there's so much you can do with it and it's so easy to work with.

These are my latest projects using felt: a chicken, ideal for any Easter project and a very easy to make felt flower that you can use on cards, necklaces, bags, etc.

The templates for both are here, please feel free to download them and try them yourself. You'll see how quick they are to make.

Instructions for the blue felt flower:

1 - Cut your flower from felt.

2 - Pinch the centre of the flower at the back and apply a few stitches. This gives dimension to the flower.

3 - For the centre of the flower use a button or a round piece on felt in a contrasting color, or even beads. It's up to you.

4 - Embellish the flower. For this one I used transparent beads. If you're making a white flower you can also apply some chalk around the edges as I did for this one.

5 - And your flower is ready to be used.
