Who's ready for spring time! I know I am. In the past three days, we've received at least 10 cm of snow and though, it might be fun, but with the lock down, we still can't go anywhere. At least in the spring/summer time, we can walk in the park. Alright. If you are looking forward to spring time and is ready to make some cute little flowers that are versatile; then join me in creating these Cute Flower Appliques. They come in 3 sizes (large, medium, and small). This is also a great project for those scrap yarn that you have left over. Just find 2 contrast colours and you can start making flowers.

Once you have enough of these flowers made, you can always add it to any piece of work that you're doing. Here is a Purple Teddy Bear Cardigan with Flowers I made for my 1 yo. It's a little bit big; so it may actually fit better on a 2 yo.
