I created this felted wool cuff for an Altered Cuff Swap I am participating in on AFTCM. I used felted wool that my daughter gave me along with some coordinating fabric. I pieced three pieces of navy together to create the base onto which I sewed the teal flower die cuts (TH) using turquoise thread. I used heat and bond to adhere two strips of fabric together to create the smaller flowers. They were die cut using the smallest flower on the Tim Holtz Tattered Flowers die. I sewed them on over the teal ones stitching over each petal as close to the center as possible. As a final embellishment I added a large turquoise sequin with a gold bead in the center. I added two small snaps as a closure for this cuff!! I really like how it turned out!!
Upon rereading the guidelines it would seem that I have strayed too far off the mark and will be making another that complies more closely.
