Needlefelted Rose Brooch

This post is duplicated on another of my blogs - as the subject matter overlapped.

This has just been an experiment, so the next one might be a bit better.

First of all I made the felt by needle felting dyed fleece. Then I cut out the shapes and did my best to sew them into a Rose bud effect. I would have liked the petals to have been thinner - but they need to be a certain thickness for stability.
