Notes

Planning to make lots more of these pretty snowflakes to hang on the tree, and maybe to attach to a cord to hang at different levels and make bunting for window. Lovely pattern - clearly explained and each design is very quick to make. Quite addictive!

Next stage will be to pin them out ready for spraying with starch or hairspray.

December 4, 2022

Pinned out on a base of three foam tiles (the sort that click together for floor covering), sprayed with Dylon Spray Starch and left overnight - now feel like stiff felt, still soft to the touch but firm enough to hang effectively.

Made another in sparkly yarn! Could get quite carried away…
