  3. Thank you so much for the pattern and for the heads-up re Dunelm. Paid a visit to the one in Oxford and was entranced - came away with a number of things I couldn't resist. Have made some Easter napkin rings in Stylecraft Classique cotton so think I will now add a nice flowery centrepiece mat using your lovely pattern and the same colours as the rings. Thank you again - you are always so inspirational. E xx

    2. Really love making these flowers - finding it difficult to join them as you go neatly though. And mine won't lie as nice and flat as yours. Have found a lateral solution to the latter but any tips for the joining as you go bit? Wishing you a lovely time in Edinburgh. E xx

    3. Hi E, They do curl a little but a light steam press should deal with that...hope that helps.
      Or you could join as you go in more than one stitch? Had a fab time thanks everything was great company festival weather, accomodation and the Facebook friends were wonderful we never stopped talking lol thanks
