It's Father's Day in the UK today, so what better use for felt scraps leftover from other projects? Felt scraps can make a lovely card for any occassion, so don't throw even the tiniest bit away. I've started keeping very small scraps in emptied plastic containers that clothes washing tablets are sold in (they're only a few inches high and a few inches wide, and they're 'free').  |

Wonderful - I love the free motion stitching. You have captured the fisherman splendidly.

And I also make very small works with scraps. I enclose them in cards that I send. Or, I put a magnet on the back for people to place on their refrigerator. Good way to use those scraps.

Here's the card my daughter, Annie, made for her dad (and he thinks it's lovely!) Annie also uses scraps of felt to make cards.  |

That's so cute. It is Father's day here in Canada today. Unfortunately it was cold and rainy and we got wet at the farmers' market.

Yes Ann - we blogged about Father's Day gift ideas - the card I made for my dad and the card Annie made for her dad (my husband) were part of the post.
