felt flower

I have used these for various purposes - this picture is a larger version for my (oops, too small) laptop case.  Check out this tutorial by Craft Leftovers for the step by step.

My son was given a hand-me-down wool sweater that I thought was so cute...until I noticed the hole right in the front!  I consider myself fairly crafty, but I know nothing about knitting.  So instead of of throwing the sweater away, I threw it in the washer and dryer.  After felting the sweater, I just cut off a sleeve and stitched up the sides.  Ta-da!

Using the same idea, I made a larger version for my laptop.  Of course, since I rushed into the project I made it to small!  So now I need a smaller laptop or a friend with one that needs a cover.
