Gosh, isn’t it cold? No snow here yet: but it meant to be on its way. For now the Snowdrops remain the only flecks of white on the ground…
I guess that this is very appropriate, given that we are in the midst of the very old festival of Imbolc heralding the start of Spring.
So where had we got to? I was starting the making up of the Snowdrop…
I was quite surprised to discover that using wool gave a better finish to the petal’s, than using cotton. If you had asked me before I started this my money would have been on the cotton finish…
The petals were joined together, to form the inner and outer parts of the flower (will try and learn the proper terms for parts of the plant) and a stem was attached.
I feel a ta-dah moment coming…
I am pleased with now this has turned out: though need to work on the finishing. I think that if I showed someone the flower they would say that looks like a Snowdrop…
Or I hope that they would..?
