It&#39;s gotten to where I rarely use circular needles unless for some reason I absolutely have to. <br /><br />I agree - I&#39;m usually not a fan of silk flowers, but for a gravesite it is the only type of greenery to use. Some had put fresh flowers out on mother&#39;s grave that had been there since maybe December, and it was a terrible feeling walking up and seeing dead flowers laying there. Mom always loved more of a &#39;wild&#39; and &#39;natural&#39; look in her flower garden, so our informal flower arrangement suits her resting place well, to me.

I feel I have better tension control (for some reason) on straight needles.<br /><br />The flower bouquet for your mom&#39;s grave site is lovely, Lisa. Although fresh flowers are beautiful, they just don&#39;t last long at all when out in the elements. The silk flowers we can get today look so real that it just makes a lot of sense to use them in certain circumstances.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247[email protected]
