One felt brooch giveaway!


Hi everyone, I have been playing around with felt again and I have created these pretty little brooches and a small hanging pillow. They are embroidered with spider web roses, seed beads with pretty ribbon bows and blanket stitched around the edge.
I will be making some scissor fobs in the same design too.

The small embroidered love heart brooches measure just under 4cm at the widest part.

My giveaway

I am  giving away one of the small loveheart brooches to celebrate that I have over 1300 followers. I was intending to do this in September but changed my mind, so, if you would like to win one of the small love heart shaped embroidered brooches in a choice of pink, blue or purple then please follow the rules below:

The draw will close on 31st July 2011 and the winner will be announced a few days later.

1) Please leave a comment on this post on or before the 31st July and your name will be entered into the giveaway to win one of the small embroidered loveheart brooches. Please state which colour is your preference. 

2) If you are a follower or become a follower you will be entered twice, please tell me you are a follower.

3)If you post the top photo on your blog and create a link to this post you will be entered again, but please say you have done this.

There you have it, three chances to win! 

More photos below.

Lynn, these are lovely, such fine delicate work, they must take you forever to make. Felt is such a satisfying fabric to work with but quite plain until it passes through your imaginative hands :-)
