Spring Headbands

Putting felted flowers on elastic headbands has been my latest  felting endeavor. Margaret brought Lisa a flower headband made on an elastic band for her birthday and immediately I thought why not felt flowers instead of fabric.  Abby received the first one I made with two different types of  flowers. Since then I have made a few more with single flowers, rows of flowers, etc. (shown above).
Carol wanted one with a bug. I wonder if a butterfly would fit the bill?

IINFFP (better known as Ida's Ideas Needle Felted Flower Pattern) has been reviewed on Nancy's Notions Website


"Beautiful hand-felted flowers. The pattern is easy-to-follow with text and photographs. A lot of people around here are wearing felted flowers in their hair and pinning them to bags. A great pattern."  (click on the title to see my pattern in Nancy's Notions catalog. You can purchase it from there, also.)
