My first try didn't turn out. I had a hard time following the directions for the stem. I studied the directions for a while, and the second try turned out nice. Thank you for the pattern. The leaf is really cute with the little flower pattern.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barbara! I'm glad yours turned out, I like them together too! :)
