Take some cotton, a bunch of flowers and a large hammer.....

This week I have been playing about with flowers and a hammer. If you take some petals or leaves, put them between two layers of cotton and then whack them with a large hammer until they are totally squashed, you get ...........
..... the most amazing flower prints on your fabric. Half of the ones I have played about with stayed on the fabric when washed and the other half faded out. I will have to work on that aspect, I will post the results when I get it sorted out.

Crisp Cotton Pillowcases

Everyone loves a beautiful crisp white pillowcase, so when I managed to lay my hands on some beautiful vintage cotton I knew straight away what I wanted to make with it.
I really love the way they have all turned out. I am very tempted to just keep the above red flower set. If you would feel tempted too they will all be available for sale over in our Felt shop in the next couple of days.
