She made dozens for the WI works sales and they always sold well. Very fiddly to make, which is why she doesn't make them any more. I tried to make one and had to face up to the fact that "some of us got it, and some of us don't!" I think the one Jo is picking from is the tallest teasel plant I've ever seen.Canadian Chickadeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995693884248628958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5684277511053973833.post-91224381872331849662011-09-29T16:53:04.877+01:002011-09-29T16:53:04.877+01:00My Grandmother loved teasels.

I can't reply on there for some reason...I've just figured out that there is an "Edit" button at the top and I can fix things on there after I've posted. Alas, if I only had such a button for my life!
