Mini flower presses

I have been wanting to make these for a while.

Having a cricut makes cutting the paper inserts a breeze, however I had to buy the wooden blanks as they are too thick for my machine.

I have decorated one with a piece of my Australian floral fabric, and the other is a colour transfer from my range of floral photographs.

They are 3 inches (7.62 cm) square.

I look forward to using them in the field when I find a flower to press and research.

Wool scarf idea in 2015, made 2023!

I am delighted with my first wool scarf that I sewed over the weekend using the wool challis printed for me by @parlourprinting.

I created the design from my own photography of pincushion hakeas and bottlebrush from my garden as well as a waratah from a bouquet from my son.

It is lovely and soft and feels divine!
