I decided to try the zig-zag fold as I had some spare circles left after trying the dahlia fold. It is really easy to do and reminds me of a frilly skirt! Photo will follow, but having a problem at present.

I've had to put the Zigzag and the Dahlia into my photobucket album, as I could not get Imageshack to work, it seems to have changed. Both are first attempts at the folds, but they are lovely to do so looking forward to doing more soon! But work calls!

 Wow, those are awesome. I made a duo cold last night. Made a sunflower and then a rosette for the middle. Turned out okay for a beginner. You are a master though.

Hope you get " hooked" on teabags as well as crochet Claudia! Go to the Tea bag topics and read all about them. There are so many pretty tiles to print and use.

Claudia you will LOVE it if you try. It is a craft anyone can do and it is so much fun to put them on card or gifts. Everyone will think you spent hours making them. (It will be our secret that it only takes a few minutes
 )
