Retro Love Heart Brooches

Well we are having some horrific weather here in my corner of the UK.  There has been flooding like we've never seen before and the Somerset Levels have been engulfed in so much water from rivers bursting their banks that it has become an island within an island.  The train services have been cut off to alot of the extreme South West due to damaged rail lines and in Dawlish part of the track collapsed into the sea completely, thankfully when there was not a train passing over it.  I really feel for the people whose houses have been flooded and everyone else affected and hope that they are given proper help from Government and the EU to enable them to try and get their lives back on track again.

I have tried not to venture out into the heavy rain and wind unless it was to go to work and have done a bit of sewing at home instead.

I enjoy making felt brooches and wanted to do something that could be Valentine themed but used at any other time of the year.  I'd seen various versions of retro heart brooches on Pinterest and decided to make some of my own.

They are abit fiddly but I am really pleased with how they turned out!



There are a few available on my Facebook page for £4.00 each plus p & p if you'd like one.
