Jane, pictured above, joined the group late, but picked it up really fast. I'm not sure if I'd attempt it with children aged below yr 5 or 6. And I'd probably use slightly larger squares [12 or 15cm], and apply glue with proper spreaders or brushes.<br />Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494078135251214182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-55270982988792507802015-03-19T09:30:45.931+00:002015-03-19T09:30:45.931+00:00Now that's an excellent idea.

I think felt might prove too thick - but maybe a polycotton - or a very fine fabric, backed with lightweight iron on interfacing - would work.

They are on my to do list for Christmas particularly the flower balls as they are ideal as an alternative Christmas "pom pom" decorated with spray paint (just lightly) and hung off garlands, dressers etc. I am definitely going to have a go now.<br /><br />Hope you had a good time - it looked as if you had everyone absorbed.<br /><br />Take care<br /><br />Pattypan<br /><br />xPattypanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533048669555871726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-35568348641037810042015-03-19T07:38:02.483+00:002015-03-19T07:38:02.483+00:00They look lovely!
