Monday in my "ewe"niverse"— Rose buds

Hello and happy Tuesday! Yesterday (Monday—and actually Sunday night too) I made these sweet little rose buds.  My inspiration was our honeymoon eleven years ago. I saw these adorable handmade flowers at a little shop when we were walking around Portofino and I've wanted to make them ever since. Just like the picture, with dozens of colorful rose buds billowing over the sides of the pot. I just love 'em! Well, I've gotten 12 done, 88 left to make. Hopefully, it won't take me another eleven years to finish.

My rose buds were made with polkadot fabric and natural linen. I embroidered the little dots and x's.
