\"Felt<\/p>\n

Late last year I sent my daughter on a reconnaissance mission to find out which storybook character her teacher loved when she was a little girl. The intel came back: it was Belle from Beauty and the Beast<\/em>.<\/p>\n

So I set to work making an end of year thank you gift for the teacher. It was one of my signature-customised cloth doll designs, loosely inspired by Belle, with a rockabilly twist. Quite coincidentally at this particular time the world was hyping up for the next Disney installment of this beloved fairy tale classic.<\/p>\n

Now, when I make dolls I like to accessories them, not wanting to send them out into the world empty handed. In the case of Rockabilly Belle she came with a handmade book titled \u201cEmbrace Your Inner Beast\u201d and a single stem rose. Today\u2019s tutorial is all about that felt and wire crafted flower. So let\u2019s begin.<\/p>\n
