You should be getting the sample felts today to practice with! You will be surprised how quickly these can be made, which is part of the appeal. So many ideas from very simple circles to complex landscapes…have fun!

I basically listed everything I like. And I like everything!

That snail is so cute. I like snails, & snail mail!

I’m astonished at how many you sent— was only expecting a few small pieces…. :star_struck:

I am an enabler…plus, once you get started, it is hard to stop…and, if you make any goofs, so what? Have fun!

Ok. I have narrowed ideas down to 2. Maybe 3 at most LOL. Now time to sketch & do some rough draft versions to see what i can do vs what my imagination thinks I can do!

Spent multiple hours yesterday working on a badge… It’s nearly done (just need to add the back layer), and it’s not terrible, but it doesn’t really have the “wow” factor I was hoping for after spending so much time on it :frowning:

I’ve done drafts of two designs & still can’t figure out which i like best! So I am making two & leaving the decision for later lol. Next Week Susan can deal with it. :wink:

Tonight is the night I figure out my design! Said confidently and hopefully.

Haha…I feel this. I have a plan, but have yet to sketch it out to pin down the details.

I’m thinking this weekend will be good for crafting. Maybe we (I) need a Craft Zoom to help carve out some dedicated craft time… :thinking:

I had to put opt1-5 in the front so it would keep it in the order I wanted and not alphabetical. but that wiped the results so if you already voted you have to vote again

I’m looking forward to it, whenever it is. I love actually seeing everyone and hearing your voices. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I voted! At the moment, with daylight saving there, and no daylight saving here, 2pm EST is 4am here, so I didn’t vote for those ones - but I am very often awake that early, so I’ll join in my pyjamas if that’s the option too :smile_cat:

I had a felt sewing binge yesterday, and I’ve finished one badge ready to send!
