I saw this adorable tutorial a while back on the Purl Bee and made note to try it later. Well, later came today. I actually was planning on doing a totally different feature, but I totally and completely messed it up. Fixable? Oh no. Been there before?
Anyhow, this sweet rosette was shown as a little girl's hair clip, but I thought it would be pretty to do a few on one headband. Here's how it turned out.
I love this mustard color, but I look like a corpse if I wear it. Little bits of it on accessories are perfect instead.
One more picture because I asked my husband to snap one of me with Rex. I never have pictures of me with my kids because I'm always taking them. I was really excited to get a good one.
Want to make one? Head on over to her tutorial. It is excellent and very clearly explained.
So you know how I mentioned that I totally screwed up a project today? I think we all do that, but don't always talk about it. We show the perfect finished product instead. I added a tab above called, "Whoops!" I thought I'd tell you about one of the times I messed up and if you have a similiar story you can e-mail it to me to post. That way we can all laugh at each other and enjoy the mistakes, too.
Tomorrow is Soapbox Saturday and I'm excited to tell you a little about a different project I've been working on. Thanks for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteDid you use the wool felt described in the pattern, or do you use lesser expensive felt? I would love to use the real wool stuff but I'm hesitant because of the price! Whatever felt you used though, they turned out lovely!
ReplyDeletewhat a cute pic of you and your boy!
