~*~ Don’t forget about my giveaway it closes on 10/8/10~*~
3 Hoops Down 5 to go. This time I decided to use a variety of fabric flowers. I started with 2 rolled flowers (check out this great tutorial from Sugar Bee), 2 yo yo flowers, and 1 ribbon flower. (Oh sorry about the bad pics I had 4 paintball guys over till late last night so I took what I could get.)
After seeing it all together I decided I didn’t like the ribbon flower so I removed it, I think I’m going to add one more flower in a darker color. Maybe this tattered flower from Sew4Home or these fun folded flowers from Make It and love It.
PS this is the nifty tool I used to make the yo-yo flowers.

I love the hoops, they turned out wonderful! I’m loving all the embroidery hoop art out there right now! Thanks for visiting While He Was Napping. I’d be thrilled to have you post about the date jar. I’m so glad that you liked it!

This is a really great idea! I love the colors and while I adore the sweet little ribbon flower, I agree a darker color may compliment the rest of your palette!

Oh that’s a neat little contraption for making flowers! I was wondering how you made those
I love your hoops. They’re really decorative and very creative
Maybe you should make more and put some in your store!

I really need to make some embroidery hoop art. I love it! I really like the shape of this. The pink flowers are a great complement to the blue fabric. Nice job!
Visiting from It’s So Very Cheri!

Very pretty! I have seen “hoop” or “flower” but not both combined before. Great job!
