Happy Cinco de Mayo, StaciAnn and Monica, and OG TEAM! I have always loved this festive little cactus, AND FINALLY MADE ONE last week! At one time, when I was first an OG Member (2018), I had seen this fabric in WalMart–but didn’t know then ‘how to’ make much more than a Basic Star; so, I didn’t pick up the fabric. Then, when you showed and INSPIRED us with these desert beauties, I started searching for the fabric; finally found on Ebay; and now I have made my first–including bright yellow pony beads, and topped with a teal bloom and a gold hanger-string. It’s adorable, and I am making others, starting today–the one with the ‘frisky whiskery’ spines (made with frayed string). I love ornament-making ‘on the go,’ and gifting something unique and handmade. You and your TEAM are NoSEW TALENTED, and inspire me very much!
Hi Shellie, I’m so glad you were able to put your own spin on this inspiring idea!
