Remember your poppy

Hello. I'm posting this now as time is running out. It's Remembrance Sunday very soon, and a lot of people will be wearing their poppies. It's thanks to Lesley for sending me this in an email. She found a pattern to make a fabric poppy, and this is the result. It looks lovely.

If anyone else wants to do this the instructions are easy to follow. Here is a link to Oksana+hobbies. She is a blogger originally from Siberia, but now living in Texas. I've had a look round her blog, there are some good ideas for crafters which she is happy to share. Worth a look if you need some inspiration. It's a fantastic blog, in English and Russian, a button to translate, and it has links to a whole lot of other crafting sites as well. A good one for the sidebar I think.

Thanks to Lesley for drawing my attention to this, always like to share useful information. Just a note to add, if you make your own poppy, don't forget to make a donation as well if you see a collection box anywhere.

Thanks for popping in. Have to go out. Catch you soon. Toodle pip
