Crocheted flowers

My friend has been making crochet flower brooches ready for the church sale.  Hers are big and blousey affairs, very dramatic and lovely.  I was inspired by her efforts, so I decided to make some a little smaller and more delicate, and came up with the following four after a little playing around.






I could only find a couple of balls of yarn, having given most of mine away to the charity shops when I moved house - I shall have to buy some more, because, whilst winter white is fine for practising and creating designs, it's just a little boring for selling!


Now I need to do a little more thinking and practising, it's a long time since I did any crocheting, but now I remember what fun it is:)
