    Since I made my first Rose video in February 21, I have been refining the original way of making these roses. In this video I will show you step by step in detail how to make the rose but along the way I will show you close ups of the work, more detail about how long it takes to make the roses and lots of tips for beginners about what to do and not to do. This is a method that I consider to be evolving all the time as I make more roses. I call these Judith's roses. Judith has been a feltmaker and textile artist as long as I can remember. In my first video , I followed Judith's notes. She and her husband Don were travelling across Australia, through the desert and Judith was wanting to do some felt making as they drove along. Obviously, anything involving a lot of sloppiness and water was out of the question so Judith came up with the idea of using a simple plastic shopping bag and a metal tube which could fit into a jar that had a screw top lid. One day... I thought... but I am not on the road and can use any method I want.!! So I have been trialling all sorts of ideas, some successful , some not. For my next investigation I want to see if the whole parcel can be felted in an ordinary washing machine along with the other washing. It will be interesting as I wash in cold water.
    Please let me know how you go and do ask for further information if you need it. I would love to hear from you.
    Music Thankyou!!

      Thank you so much for watching. I would take a few hours to make these, but not all at once. You can speed up the process by putting the flower parcel in the washing machine. So glad you liked it. The flowers do look amazing and I notice that the big flower is back in trend.

    You are very practical. A bit of vinegar in the. Rinse water would help.

      Hi Sheryl, Thank you so much for watching. I dont know the temperature of the flat iron but it is designed for hair and wool is hair of a variety so it is ok. I suggest you try yours on some different fabrics and some wool. I think it will be ok . I havent had any trouble with it.
